It's a 12 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 3: little bit warmer than it's been. So with celebrating that. 13 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 3: Somebody asked me earlier this morning, is it cold enough? 14 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 3: All I could do was laugh. I mean, look, it 15 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 3: was seventeen degrees a couple of days ago. 16 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 2: So yeah, let me make. 17 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: You though, if it's seventeen, can you tell the difference 18 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: if it drops to fifteen or if it goes to nineteen? 19 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: Can you can you physically feel a difference? 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 2: These are rhetorical questions. 21 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: Gone, no, no, sious, everybody, man, man, you can tell 22 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 3: the difference between twenty one and twenty man when you're 23 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 3: standing waiting for the bus. Yeah, you can tell the 24 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 3: difference between seventeen and eighteen. 25 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: You know, and when it's everybody's tolerance level. Yeah, everybody's 26 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: talent level is different, Kevin, That's what I asked that question. 27 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: Well, I think it's also the art of layering. 28 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: You know, it's all in how you layer to see, 29 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 3: because in the twenties you don't need as much layering 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: as you do in the teens. But then when the 31 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: temperature rises by the mid day, you see, then all 32 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: of a sudden you got to take something off, you know, 33 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: and carry it around. So that's the ear witness weather 34 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 3: report right there. 35 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, but how you feeling cap. 36 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm still learning, Kevin. I'm still learning and I'm going 37 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,919 Speaker 1: to learn a lot this one with brother Tony Browner, 38 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: also Dr Rosie and Darryl Muhammad when they join us later. Yeah, 39 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: what's going on in the news. 40 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: Well, well, I'm glad you asked that question. I came 41 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 3: prepared to answer it. Last night. I'm watching the holiday 42 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: TV programming. You know, there's a concert, there's a cartoon 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: on all kinds of stuff. And then, uh, we'll pause 44 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 3: this program for this update from President Donald J. 45 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 2: Trump. So the screen open, let me set the setting. 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 3: The screen opens, and there he is wrapped in the 47 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: a couple of Christmas trees, the green garland behind him, 48 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 3: and you know, in his classic red tie, and he 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: looked like a Christmas postcard almost. 50 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: For a second. 51 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 3: And then he began to speak, carl and President Trump spoke, 52 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 3: according to CNN's spoke at a faster pace and spoke 53 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: it seems like, you know, he had a lot on 54 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 3: his mind, like he was angry and yelling at Americans. 55 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 3: Yet at the same time he's trying to assure Americans 56 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: that the economy was good. He says, in the eleven 57 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: years that I mean the eleven months, rather in the 58 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 3: eleven months that he's been in the White House, the 59 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 3: things have changed. The borders have been closed, and no 60 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: immigrants have come across the border, zero coming across the border. 61 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: Since he closed it. 62 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 3: And of course you may know that he eventually got 63 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: around to blaming Joe Biden, blaming the Democrats, blaming you know, 64 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 3: it was a big blame game. But at the first 65 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: the whole speech only lasted about twenty minutes. 66 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: And so at first he kept speaking of. 67 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 3: Prices are going down, and you know, the gas is 68 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: less than two fifty. I don't know where that is, 69 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 3: but he said, gases less than to fifty. Grocery prices 70 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: is down. He brought up he made a reference to 71 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: an interesting thing, you know, the two hundred and fiftieth 72 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 3: anniversary for America and the declaration of independence, and he says, 73 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 3: in honor of that, he wants to give seventeen hundred 74 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 3: and seventy six dollars in dividends to all of the 75 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 3: military personnel, you know, and he was talking about, you know, 76 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 3: millions of military personnel. And to me that even if 77 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 3: that was possible, isn't that two billion dollars he's talking about, 78 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 3: you know, giving out as a dividend. 79 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I didn't watch it because I 80 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: thought he was going to speak longer. But it seems 81 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: like what she's saying, he's stuck to the script, because 82 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: usually gets in trouble when he goes off script. That's 83 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: the first thing. 84 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right, he was locked in to the teleprom 85 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: They probab. 86 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: He told him, you know, stay on the tail promise, 87 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: don't veer away because then he says what he really means, 88 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: and it sounded like he was very angry as far 89 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: as the money to the serviceman concerned. He can't do 90 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,799 Speaker 1: as we all know, if we can recall from Civics class, 91 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: the Congress writes to check. So he can't do that. Well, 92 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: we never know with Donald Trump. So you know, let's 93 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: let's put that right there. But I think what he's 94 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: seeing he is trying to shure up his base and 95 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: he's losing even in his hardcore base in the military 96 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: is one of his hardcore bases, and he's losing right there. 97 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: So he's issuing them a carrot, if you will, is 98 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: to keep their support, you know. And he usually he 99 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: talks about writing checks. Where all this money made, all 100 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: these trillions of dollars, all this from these tariffs. Where 101 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: did that money go? You know? One time, you remember 102 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: he was promising all of us we're going to get 103 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: an IRS refund like we you know, like he stuck 104 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: his name on the last time he gave up money. 105 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: But right now there's no talk about that. So where's 106 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: all this money going? That's my question. 107 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: It's hard to say. And yet talking about being on teleprompter. 108 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 3: You could tell when he went off because as he 109 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 3: was talking on teleprompt he was holding for dear life 110 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 3: to the podium, it seemed. And yet when he went off, 111 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 3: that's when he would do his his signature hands motions, 112 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 3: you know, the type of thing, and you know, and 113 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: he would say, he was talking about my favorite word, tariffs. 114 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 3: Tariff is my favorite word. And he started explaining how 115 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 3: the tariffs have helped bring more money into America and 116 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 3: bring more companies back because they know that if they 117 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 3: have to pay with tariffs, then they're going to be 118 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 3: Then it'd be better to bring the company back to America. 119 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 3: And he's saying he credited himself with having done that. 120 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 3: Only he could have done that. And but he said 121 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 3: during the Democrat administration, he said, they came up with 122 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 3: the word affordability and he's calling it the unaffordable healthcare back. 123 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 3: He says the economy with unemployment is climbing to four 124 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 3: point six percent, and his approval rating has dipped. 125 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: That's I'm looking at something on USA today. But most 126 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: of his. 127 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: Speech seemed like he's giving us reason to be optimistic. 128 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: He said, this is just the first year, and it's 129 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: gonna get better. 130 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: And so the other thing that he was concerned about 131 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 3: as he talked about healthcare, the closest to it I 132 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 3: could hear was when he was saying that the insurance 133 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: companies are are charging overcharging. 134 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: And that they were going to take control of that. 135 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 3: Even as he speaks and like said, he blames rights 136 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 3: for everything else. 137 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: Did he come up with a with a with a 138 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: I guess a healthcare planman, Kevin, because you know today 139 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: I think mostly a longlicker's heading home today for the 140 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: holidays and they have to come up with a plan 141 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: or the uh it's going to expire, the credits are 142 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: going to expire, anabolicare on Friday? Did he or is 143 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: he still at the concept level because the last time 144 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: we had this conversation, he said the concept level of 145 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: a plan. Did he mention anything about that. 146 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: Nope, he just pretty much said it's it's soon to come. 147 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 3: And as I said before, his efforts to lower prices 148 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: of insurance, you know, uh, he mocked the word affordability 149 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: as if you know, the Democrat the Democratic Party were 150 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 3: the ones that took affordability out of out of reach. 151 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 3: And uh, he says, nobody can believe what's going on, 152 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 3: and it's not yet done. And uh, he didn't mention 153 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 3: anything about Venezuela or any of that, but he did 154 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: say that he he stopped. He said he stopped eight wars. 155 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: He has stopped eight wars and it has brought peace. 156 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 3: And uh, that sounds like him campaigning again for the 157 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: Nobel Peace Prize. 158 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: So you said, you say, the whole thing sound like 159 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: a campaign speech. 160 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 4: It did. 161 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 3: The whole thing sounds like, you know, not only look 162 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 3: out for next year. Next year is going to be better, 163 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: and that kind of speech. 164 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: He said. 165 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 3: He pretty much said, only I can do this, only 166 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: you know, only I know. 167 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: You didn't even talk about Congress, you see what. 168 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,479 Speaker 1: I'm saying, or his administration, his administration. 169 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: He made it sound like you know that. 170 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: Like I said, he made it sound like it was 171 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 3: a campaign speech, because you know, you as the president, 172 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: you've got to represent both sides, even. 173 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 2: If you don't agree. 174 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: It seems that it's a unified government in some way, 175 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 3: shape or forming. That is, there are democrats, there are 176 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: Republicans that are a part of the future of this country. 177 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: And if you just stand there and say, uh, it 178 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: was all the democrats fault, we know that blaming the 179 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 3: other side doesn't work. It doesn't work from a successful standpoint, 180 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 3: or you know, not just from a presidential standpoint. It 181 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: just doesn't seem to to work. And you see what 182 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: I'm saying. And so everything from military bonuses to UH 183 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 3: to talking about what he did as far as the 184 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 3: borders go and how safe America is, but he'said open 185 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: borders from the Democratic Democratic administrations had put America in trouble. 186 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 3: And I'm trying to gather one more point that he 187 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 3: had said when he was talking. I think I've covered 188 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,959 Speaker 3: most of it, and talking about affordability and uh. And 189 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 3: he went through the speech so quickly it was like 190 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 3: somebody was telling them, you've got to do something. You've 191 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 3: got to be somewhere or something. 192 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: You know, Well, let me just add this, Yeah, let 193 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: me just have this before we move on. Kevin marrying Adelson. 194 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: It's one of the richest women in the country. She's 195 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: already dedicated two hundred and fifty million dollars for Trump's 196 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: third term in office. So she says, if were you run, 197 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: I got two hundred fifty million dollars sitting right here, 198 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: and I can get more money for you as well 199 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: from my friends. So I'm waiting to hear from a 200 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: response from the White House about that. So far nothing, 201 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: but she actually told him that. So yeah, that's something 202 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: we've got to keep an eye on. 203 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: Wow. 204 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 3: Well, a couple of last things, as we talk about 205 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: the military, the Federal Court says troops can stay in 206 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 3: DC and hints at prolonged deployment, especially after the incident 207 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: with the two soldiers from West Virginia. They're more than 208 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 3: two thousand troops here in the DC area and from 209 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: at least eleven Republican led states. They brought in more 210 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: since the shooting, and it looks like in today's ruling, well, 211 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 3: yesterday's ruling, the Jedgers wrote that DC's unique federal status 212 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 3: allows Presidential Trump to largely control the deployment of troops 213 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 3: in the city. And that was one of the things 214 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: he mentioned last night too, that crime is down because 215 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 3: of his forces, he said, and so and so it's 216 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 3: that is one of the things. And finally, the Obamas 217 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 3: were interviewed on Jimmy Kimmel and they said they were 218 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: planning on meeting with the Hiners the night that they died, 219 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 3: and they were close friends with Rob and Michelle Reiner 220 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 3: and so Jimmy Kimmel wished them, you know, condolences in 221 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 3: their loss. So we'll leave it at that. But there's 222 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 3: also another person being accused of being involved in that 223 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 3: murder other than a Rob Reiner's son, so we'll keep 224 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 3: watching that. 225 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: Thanks. That's the way it is. On the eighteenth of December. 226 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: Girl, all right, thanks Karn fourteen. After a tough there, 227 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: Salama leggans to my brother Diarrel Muhammad, welcome back to 228 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: the program. 229 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 5: Why let's salam, dear brother, how are you this morning? 230 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: I'm still learning, brother Diarrel, I'm still learning. But you've 231 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: been on a crusade to reduce the crime rate in Washington, 232 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: d C. And that's an uphill task, I take it. 233 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: But you're still there. Can you tell us give us 234 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 1: some backdrop why you started this first, because we always 235 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: have new listeners and the first time I'm hearing you, 236 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: so give us a little bit quickly. Thumbnail sketches your 237 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: background and why you decided that this was your slice 238 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: of the pie. 239 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 5: Well, first and foremost four years ago in the street 240 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 5: every day, I've seen that there was a problem with 241 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 5: young people going to school and leaving school. In order 242 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 5: to go to school, they got to get past the 243 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 5: drug dealers and the addicts and those brothers and sisters 244 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 5: that have mental health issues. So I seen that it 245 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 5: was a major problem. So I asked the principles and 246 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 5: all of the high schools in Washington, DC, can we 247 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 5: come in? That was one thing, but are also seeing 248 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 5: the culture of our young people, which is our future 249 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 5: in a dire situation. Meaning when you in the street, 250 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 5: like their brother called, you got an opportunity to talk 251 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 5: to people, you get an opportunity to deceive people. And 252 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 5: me being in the streets six to seven days a week, 253 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 5: I'm saying the young people guiding young people. So I 254 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 5: was sticking it back and flybergasted by the young people 255 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 5: kicking the young people for their leaders. And I decided 256 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 5: to go into high schools and just to try to 257 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 5: say a few words from them to them by letting 258 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 5: them know that there's consequences to your actions. From there, 259 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 5: we stayed in those communities. We went in Blue High 260 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 5: School Southeast right now we're still stuck on mart Luther 261 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 5: King of Malcolm X. We went down Dumbbar, the historical 262 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 5: Dumbar High School, First Street Northwest, were still on First Street, 263 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 5: the seventh Street northwest, we went up H. D. Woodson northeast, 264 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 5: we still over linked Heights Stay Terrace. So we still 265 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 5: stuck in those neighborhoods only because there's a direlicting duty 266 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 5: in terms of us in Washington DC. I don't know 267 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 5: what's really transponing unless I travel sometimes, but there's a 268 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 5: lack of leadership in Washington, d C. In that lack 269 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 5: of leadership. You see it with Marray Bowser, She's getting 270 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 5: out of here. You see it with the police chief 271 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 5: Palmer Smith, she getting out of here. And as I 272 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 5: was listening to brother talking about the interview or what 273 00:15:55,880 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 5: Donald Trump said last night, our issue was really not them. 274 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 5: Our issues. We have to get our stuff together because 275 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 5: it's going to take us to get us out of 276 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 5: this situation. Man. The beautiful thing about it, when I 277 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 5: say the lack of leadership, you have bubble leaders in 278 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 5: Washington DC, meaning they leaders in their church, they leader 279 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 5: us in their moms, they lead us in their bubbles, 280 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 5: and just like a bubble, those that's. 281 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 4: In that right there. 282 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, Brother Diariel, hold on, We're gonna step aside 283 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: a few mints.

I 327 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 5: never stopped the killing in the heart of Washington, DC. 328 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: The major cluds that will be there this Saturday. Simple 329 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 5: city that's been killing for years, Congress Park that been 330 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 5: killing for years. Martin, Luther King, and Malcolm X said 331 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 5: nobody can get a handle of We got the three 332 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 5: leaders that come together that say, come on this, stop 333 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 5: this killing. Because our keeper is being squeezed in Washington, DC. 334 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 5: One point one billion dollars was abstracted up out of 335 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 5: the economy. Now with these people are doing, they making 336 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 5: our leaders in Washington DC, our keeper turn on the leaders. 337 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 5: So if they making our people turn on the leaders 338 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 5: is affecting Medicaid, Medicare and affecting mental health SNAP programs, 339 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 5: and the fever pitch amongst our keepers is at are 340 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 5: all times high. If you are out there in the street, 341 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 5: you see it, you feel it. But every problem has 342 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 5: a solution because this is the product of problems. And 343 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 5: when they're wherever there's a problem, here is the business. 344 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 5: So it couldn't be that Jesus at twelve years are 345 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 5: they aged to say, let me be a by my 346 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 5: father's business. So when I say bubble leaders, say we 347 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 5: leaders in these bubbles, which is the Moss Church and organizations, 348 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 5: and you got thirteen thousand non classic organizations in Washington, 349 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 5: DC and our keeper suffering the way that our keepers suffering. 350 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 5: Because I always mentioned the financial missionaries. I mentioned that 351 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 5: for a reason because now we are hustling the death 352 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 5: of our people. We keep talking about the Lehannasaurs and troubladytes, 353 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 5: so we have become enemies to our own people. Just 354 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 5: when I come on your show, I'm speaking about the reality. 355 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 5: I understand. These people got to do their responsibility. They're 356 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 5: not going to let us go. We sh got to 357 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 5: force our way away from these people, just like Moss 358 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 5: is going to feral negotiating, telling Pharaoh, okay, God told 359 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 5: me let my people go, but give me some of 360 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 5: them grants. That's what the hell is going on. When 361 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 5: I talk about double leaders of the car, they tied 362 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 5: into the government of the United States and adjusted the 363 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 5: topment in Washington, DC. So when you hear me talk, 364 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 5: I'm talking not from passion. I'm talking about the culture 365 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 5: of perception amongst the leadership in Washington, d C. So 366 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 5: it's a reason why the police chief is leaving. She 367 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 5: being pressured to leave is a reason that merrile Bald 368 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 5: that she can run again. She's not trying to deal 369 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 5: with this crazy man. And as the Honorable Minister Lewis 370 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 5: Farr Khm remains silent for a reason. Brother, and this 371 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 5: is why behind guidance to get through this map tall 372 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 5: silence can be a weapon. 373 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: And yeah, let's get to the point, the brother Daryl, 374 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: I understand what the other folks are doing. What can 375 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: we do? How can we help you? Because they can 376 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: do their thing, we can't. We can't, you know, we 377 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: can't change their minds and thoughts and in the passion 378 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: what they doing and why they doing the things. But 379 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: how can we help our people? That's where I'm going 380 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: with you. How can we help our people who were 381 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: out there doing what they shouldn't be doing and trying 382 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 1: to get them on the straight and now how can 383 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: we do that? 384 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 4: Okay? 385 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 5: I had a ZWN meeting with all the churchy from 386 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 5: Ward seven and Ward eight and it was a sister 387 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 5: reverend missus pat Fears. She had a church on Colorada 388 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 5: Avenue northwest. Me and her have been working for the 389 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 5: last three years that She's amazed. She said, I've never 390 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 5: seen nobody like you as a Musslim that's able to 391 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 5: go in these churches, and you still in this neighborhood. 392 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 5: She met me because I was in her neighborhood late 393 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 5: at night dealing with them killers. One of her church 394 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 5: members told her about me. I met her two years 395 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 5: ago to partner. I do everything that I can possibly 396 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 5: do to help our people. Now, I told her the 397 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 5: same thing. Need resources. Do you have money? If you 398 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 5: have money, our people need housing. See if we need resources, 399 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 5: that's all. You don't want to let go the resources 400 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 5: because we want to live like Cayrol. And this is 401 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 5: why mergencies had to pray to God to take Pharaoh's 402 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 5: richest gun. And we're not talking about leaders, I'm talking 403 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 5: about all of it. This is how we can help 404 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 5: help your people.

I'll always keep a witness with me because 430 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 5: when you hear me talking about these government informants stew 431 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 5: pictures and rants. That's real for us, and I get 432 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 5: to that in a minute. I had him with me. 433 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 5: The brother asked me one question, how can I help you? 434 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 5: I say, brother, the brother ancestors in need resources. He 435 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 5: was telling me about the development in Barry Farms, that 436 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 5: they allowed Barry Farms residents to move to Maryland. It 437 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 5: is a great possibility. Even though they can come back, 438 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 5: they will never be able to afford those new development 439 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 5: in townhouses in Berry Farms. He gave me that. He 440 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 5: told me he greatly open up a credit do it. 441 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: And after he said how can I help you? I 442 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 5: told him I'm not a ward and another positive I'm 443 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 5: telling them that. I looked them dead in his eyes 444 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 5: because whatever your motive is for one to meet me, 445 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 5: I didn't want to meet him. I set the record straight. 446 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 5: I'm not one of those. I love our people. It's 447 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 5: people over money for me. So there was a breezier 448 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 5: question that you asked me. Called all we have to 449 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 5: do because that money is a God's brother, and God 450 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 5: we trust that dollar. It's so powerful that we're not 451 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,239 Speaker 5: going to let it go. Now, how do you know? 452 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 5: Because we have to be careful of the love of money, 453 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 5: because the love of money was so strong and Judas 454 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 5: that he negotiated the sale of jeep. That's what's going 455 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 5: on in Washington, DC. So you're talking about people here 456 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 5: with the people, our people dying out there, our people starving. 457 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 5: And that's one of the reasons being a woman of 458 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 5: the Little Ferretson is sounded because we have to study 459 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 5: this thing. Brother, when I mean to study this thing. 460 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 5: It came out to me yesterday that we got a 461 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 5: new police chief that's coming and I say, wow, this 462 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 5: is amazing. Mister Jeffrey Carls, he's the new interim police chief. 463 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 5: How did he get that spot so fast? Because the 464 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 5: House Oversight Committee, they said, this sister family Smith. She 465 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 5: pressured senior commands to manipulate the crime data and fostered 466 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 5: a culture of repaliation. This is war, brother, So they 467 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 5: got their man in me say, I'm on Martin Luther, 468 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 5: King of Malcolm Xican.

They got to eat, brother. 491 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 5: See the staff is gonna go up, the robbery is 492 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 5: going to go up now, and they got their man 493 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 5: in that position. So when I say the lack of leadership, 494 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 5: that's what it is. 495 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: Let me jump you here. You know, we talk about 496 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: crime and what's going on in our community, and it's 497 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: something that we got to address obviously, because the other 498 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: folks don't care as long as we're killing each other, 499 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: we're doing their work for them. We need to find 500 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: out why. We need to get to the root of 501 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: the problem. You know, and as you're talking about finding 502 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: money to help in all this kind of stuff, but 503 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: we need to find why these young people do the 504 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: things that they do. This this self hate, it's manifested 505 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: in self hate. Why they keep doing that? We need 506 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: to we need to start at the route, not at 507 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: not at the branch. So we need to figure out 508 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: a way. I know you speak with these young folks 509 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: all the time, especially, been into a lot of the 510 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: schools in the district, and what are they telling you? 511 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: Why did they why they hating on each other's what's 512 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 1: the answer? And because once you can answer that question, 513 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: we've already halfway got to the solution. So what are 514 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: they telling you why they do the things they do? 515 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 5: Well, there's no leadership. Once again, because I heard the 516 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 5: Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. If a home is not the 517 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 5: number one influence on our youth, leave this school, need 518 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 5: this church, need this parents, he said, the number one 519 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 5: influence on our young people as young people. Once again, 520 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 5: I'm out there, I see it. So if that's the case, 521 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 5: then what happened to leadership? That means that the leadership 522 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 5: is disconnected from the youth. You see, and this is 523 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 5: the key. We just disconnected. So we disconnected from the youth. 524 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 5: That means that we did not securing our future. So 525 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 5: the youth don't want to listen to the elders because 526 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 5: they when I am, even when they talk to me, 527 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 5: they feel as though nobody is listening to them. Nobody 528 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 5: understands or want to understand. You got to go out 529 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 5: in the street. That's why we are forced to go 530 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 5: out in the street and engage with them. Because when 531 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 5: you go out every day and engage with your people, 532 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 5: then out of that engagement become a trust. Out of 533 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 5: that trust become a bond. They're not listening to anybody. 534 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 5: It's hard call, it ain't easy because when you go 535 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 5: on those blocks, if the people that you know is 536 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 5: not there, the first thing they see a new face. 537 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 5: Oh he's the police. That's the first thing they gonna say, 538 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 5: because they committing crimes, even our young people twelve thirteen 539 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 5: to fourteen. I'm watching them with them calicos and them 540 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 5: salt rifles, and I'm standing to myself, where the head 541 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 5: you getting them from? 542 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 6: First of all? 543 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 5: Whereas you're getting the money to get it. Say so 544 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 5: now if you want to deal with that aspect of 545 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 5: our young keeper, because it's not all of them, but 546 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 5: the young majority in these neighborhoods. And then it's being 547 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 5: glorified all in the wrap, is being glorified all on television. 548 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 5: This phone is extremely dangerous because we are copycat young people. 549 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 5: Now they see somebody doing something, then they gonna start 550 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 5: doing it. It's hip. Now nobody want to speak to 551 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 5: it because we are scared of them. We're scared of them. 552 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 5: We're dealing with What. 553 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: Are you saying, We're scared of our young people? 554 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 5: Yes, sir, we're dealing with the nation to kill us. 555 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 5: Anytime you watch and read the news, because you do 556 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 5: you are learnt man. And you see tleven thirteen years 557 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 5: old walking up the grown people and even young people 558 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 5: up throwing their brains. Something is wrong. That means that 559 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 5: that young person is psychologically mentally dead in order for 560 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 5: you to take a life. And we understand that the brain, 561 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 5: don't order mind, don't understand the consequences of his accidents. 562 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 5: Though it reaches twenty five years of age, they don't 563 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 5: know what the hell that doing. The mind is still 564 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 5: being formulated. But you got the spirit of a killer. 565 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: Hold authorry the diary because we got to check the 566 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: news coming up next. But let me ask you this, though, 567 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: is the is the ad because we're looking for solutions, 568 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: Here is the answer. Jobs these young people are telling 569 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: you what they do, the things they do to get money. 570 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: Is it lack of education? Is it a combination. I'm 571 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: trying to find a solution. I'm trying, you know, because 572 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: we could talk about what they do and all of that, 573 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: but why they do the things they do? This self 574 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: hate basically because they don't know who they are. You know, 575 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: astro Quatio was just saying, no thyself and says many 576 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: of our problems. If our people knew who they were, 577 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: who our ancestors were, they wouldn't they wouldn't even say 578 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: anything bad about another black person, let alone something physical. 579 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to get to the rude of 580 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: problem again why they do the things they do.

Let's figure out what can we do. What 611 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: are some of the issues. Is it unemployment, why some 612 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: of the are young people are misguided and doing things 613 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: they shouldn't do, or because is it self hate? What 614 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: do you see? 615 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 5: I say all three of them, and a cocktail of 616 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 5: other things. I'm in Washington, DC, naturally, and you hear me. 617 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 5: I say certain things for a reason. When I say 618 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 5: financial mercenaries, see I can tell you almost three to 619 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 5: four hundred million dollars was wasted in Washington, DC that 620 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 5: should have been giving to these young people. See, I'm 621 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 5: around whether these people that's hustling them. I'm an enemy 622 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 5: to these people. Man, I'm an enemy to them because 623 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 5: I'm busting up a culture in Washington, d C. That's 624 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,479 Speaker 5: beating like this. I know at least forty years now. 625 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 5: I'm talking to people that comes to median secrecy. They say, this, man, 626 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 5: start in trouble. Of course, I'm starting trouble because I 627 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 5: love our people. So you're standing to be fort these 628 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 5: in front of these young people. Ask if you leaders, 629 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 5: and you're trying to help them, but more so you 630 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 5: can your bills, mind your houses and so forth and 631 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 5: so on. The biggest thing they transpire for me when 632 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 5: that the majority of that grant money was taken away. 633 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 5: The majority of those people that was getting them was 634 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 5: coming to me asking me for jobs. And I'm saying 635 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 5: to myself, I told John, stopped playing with our people 636 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,280 Speaker 5: because they give him them the money's called the money 637 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 5: is really not the issue like that. The federal money 638 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 5: was being a lot of kidd The reason that they 639 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 5: took those millions of dollars bro it is because they 640 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 5: couldn't match it with the data the solution to why 641 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 5: it was giving them the money. So the people found 642 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 5: out I. 643 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: Want to get off about don't want to get you 644 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: off the tangent you know about what's got the money 645 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: and all of this. Take it to this, get down 646 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: to the nitty gritty. Our people hurting each other, and 647 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: you think the money is the solution. How do we 648 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: reach those people with the money. 649 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 5: What I'm saying, Paul, there's a cocktail. For every action, 650 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 5: there's the opposite reaction. That's life. So if you come 651 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 5: in to me and I'm saying you can trust me, 652 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 5: and then you find out in my trusting you that 653 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 5: you portrayed me, that's what I hear. That's what I see. 654 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 5: That's why a lot of this let me again. 655 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: Because the money thing is control. That's control. If you 656 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: think the money's going to solve the problem, that's controlled. 657 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: We need to have control of our own neighborhoods. We 658 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: need to be the ones who can make make the difference. 659 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: We have to find out why these young people are 660 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: doing the things they do and then attack it. I 661 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: don't say the money or say jobs. I keep here 662 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: on your keep going back about this money's misspent and 663 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,479 Speaker 1: misappropriation of the money. That doesn't matter because that wasn't 664 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: there with the problem is still be there. So let's 665 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: deal with the problem. Dire el. I want you to 666 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: get to the problem. You speak to these young people. 667 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: Why are they telling you whether they do the things 668 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: they do? They're not telling you because we didn't get 669 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: a great trust. We don't know about the. 670 00:36:54,920 --> 00:37:02,879 Speaker 5: Grand They don't trust us just in front of them. 671 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 5: That's the root of it. So then if I don't 672 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 5: trust you and you adult and I'm adolescent, juvenile, then 673 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 5: I'm gonna try to figure it out and I'm gonna 674 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 5: do what I need to do survival mode. Just the 675 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 5: reality of it just ain't complex, just ain't talkplex at all. 676 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 5: I'm gonna get some money, ever I can't get it, 677 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 5: and this is okay. 678 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: We're getting somewhere now. 679 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 4: So what do they need? 680 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: How do we need? What? What do they need to 681 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: get that money? Are they do they need job training? 682 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 1: Do they need more education? Then you know that's where 683 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: I'm at. Who's got who's what grant? Because they don't 684 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: know about grants and who's got who got money? See me? 685 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 1: Shit with Black Lives Matter, and they ripped off black 686 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: Lives Matter, Grassroots and all the stuff they do. But 687 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 1: the people of grass rights Matter, Grassroots are still helping 688 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: our people. So it's not so much about the money. 689 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: Who's getting money and who's not getting money, who's getting paid. 690 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: That's not the issue because the people on the streets 691 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: don't know that, and they really don't care. We have 692 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: to figure out they go ahead. 693 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 5: There's so much information that you can go on this 694 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:16,760 Speaker 5: phone and you can google. It's so much. I'm learning, 695 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 5: like you said, a student, I'm learning and the things 696 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 5: that they're telling me, I have to go back and 697 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 5: even fact check it myself. So it's not a comp 698 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 5: it's not as money is the issue of all our problems. 699 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 5: That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is the 700 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 5: situation is so direcau when you do talk to them, 701 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 5: the majority of them, it's starting, I don't have an opportunity, 702 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 5: there's no mother, there's no father. I have to do 703 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 5: what I have to do to survive. So it's not 704 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 5: like it's one size fit all when it comes to 705 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 5: our young people. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying, 706 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 5: what I'm hearing from them, This is the reason that 707 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 5: I'm a uh connect to the majority of resources. I 708 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 5: don't have them once again, but I know where they 709 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 5: are and we have a team that sometimes we take 710 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 5: them to those buildings because they're not going to those buildings, 711 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 5: so we take them to get those resources. So out 712 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 5: of back call, I'm telling you the language amongst our 713 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 5: young people and the lack of trust. They found out 714 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 5: that the money was allidicated to people and they never 715 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 5: received the money even for the job training. Now, one 716 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 5: of the profound things that I can say to you 717 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 5: at this moment, just millions of dollars, that's being a 718 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 5: lot of catered to people that have programs growing up 719 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 5: to DC jails. I'm saying to myself, all of that 720 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 5: is good because I educated myself while I was incarcerated. 721 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 5: That's why I was able to receive five college degrees. 722 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 5: Of course I'm with that, but it's the same money 723 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 5: truck equippled to stop them, meaning job training and jobs 724 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 5: from them going through the jail. That's what I'm talking about, Paul, I. 725 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: Got I got some folks tweeting for you, and some 726 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: of them are out of town. So let me tell 727 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: you the first one from Chicago. It says crame gone 728 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 1: down in washing d seeds if the residents feel safe, 729 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: sin said Trump. But the end of the troops, that's 730 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: a question. Yeah, that's a question for you. That's a 731 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: tweet for you. 732 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 5: I don't believe it. I'm out there every day. And 733 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 5: then if a man won't treat you right, what makes 734 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 5: you think you're gonna teach you right. There's a verse 735 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 5: in all the Quaran, chapter forty nine, verse six, when 736 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 5: the unrenchest man bring you news. So we got to 737 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 5: be careful who you get now news from, because that's 738 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 5: the beef that oversight Congress. Just use the hours of 739 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 5: Pameles Smith. She's they say that she falsified the data. 740 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 5: But when you out there in the streets like we 741 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 5: are in Washington, d C. They still come out. People 742 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 5: still committing crimes, a lot of us not even being 743 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 5: reported because this this these is not Chocolate City anymore. 744 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 5: It can uh uh justificated. So these Europeans is not 745 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 5: sorting those crimes because they want to stay here. They 746 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 5: got the house. This is nothing for them. This is 747 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 5: why the brother that's running for Congress, he mentioned Barry 748 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 5: Farms got home. History with Barry Farms and Marion Barry 749 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 5: gonna be wiped out in a minute once they get 750 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 5: in there.

So now I'm 754 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,240 Speaker 5: not gonna say and never say that the climb without 755 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 5: sure facts of the matter, it's easy. And this is 756 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 5: why we have to be extremely careful Kaul, listening to 757 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 5: these people with these narratives, running away with these narratives 758 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 5: as if it's actual facts. We have to investigate it 759 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 5: before we even mention it again, because where's a first 760 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 5: halfle when we what these people are saying or anybody 761 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 5: else and don't vet it. Our people committee climbs every day. 762 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 5: I know to be a fuck.

I'm 765 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 5: talking about challenging. I'm watching them and I'm standing between it. 766 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 5: See so these brothers are still selling clank, they still 767 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 5: selling weed, they still robbing, They still got deep in 768 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 5: the hood. They didn't stopped from no damn Trump. And 769 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 5: if you believe that because they are here and they 770 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 5: stopped because Trump I got to act for a urine 771 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 5: test from you. If you think that time stopped in 772 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 5: washing the DC because she's a president for pennsyl say 773 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 5: to do something is bro something is wrong? 774 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 1: All right? Old that thought right there, it's shaving away 775 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: from the top. They got another tweet. It's more of 776 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: a statement. This tweet twet says the problem starts with 777 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 1: the parents. Let's stop kicking the hand down the road. 778 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: Why don't they trust their parents? Why aren't they in school? 779 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: Those are the two questions for your brother diary. 780 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 5: What that's the beautiful question because the parents ain't there. 781 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 5: And if the parents is there, the parents is their 782 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 5: friends and just general roytio amongst us as a people, 783 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 5: because there was a time where even if your parents 784 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 5: weren't there, if there was one turning home, there was grandmama. 785 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 5: Grandmama gone. So you got these young girls having these 786 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 5: babies twenty five years old. Their little baby is almost 787 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 5: eleven or ten and eleven, so she's raising as a 788 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 5: baby another baby. The mother probably he's on drugs. If 789 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 5: the mother's not on drugs, then the art partly has 790 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 5: the baby. And this is why you remember, Paul, they keep, oh, 791 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 5: kept asking for curfus for young people. What they've doing 792 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 5: out two three o'clock in the morning, purfuse. So they're 793 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 5: raising themselves so hard. When you talk about the complex problem, 794 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 5: this is a problem they is in themselves. 795 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: So on now, school, you're in favor of extending the 796 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: curfew of Washington, DC. 797 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,839 Speaker 5: No, I'm not. No, I'm not at all because at 798 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 5: the end of the day call we goes out six 799 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 5: o'clock to three o'clock in the morning, some of us, 800 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 5: and we see them out there. You ain't got no 801 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 5: business out there at no three o'clock in the morning. 802 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 5: So I'm not in favor of that room in the 803 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,399 Speaker 5: streets because that's when Trump keeps us out there. Brother. 804 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 5: When they out there, brother, they pulling these little sisters 805 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 5: over in gas stations, provoking them, let me see your tags? 806 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 5: Do you have a gun license? That's all the stuff 807 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 5: they pressing them. They find in a way only for 808 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,720 Speaker 5: the judges. The next morning they let them back out. 809 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 5: That's what's going on in the saving From that perspective, 810 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 5: so when you're talking about parents, if the parents are 811 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 5: not there, they're not going to school. They have no 812 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 5: confidence in school, and then the teachers don't know how 813 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 5: to attract their mind because the food in terms of 814 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 5: education is anaquidum. It's outdated. You said, self hatred. This 815 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 5: is what we need to learn. Knowledge yourself back all 816 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 5: over again. But they're not kissing that in the American 817 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 5: school system is not designed by Rockefeller and them to 818 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 5: do so, mister can and mister Dewey, they didn't design 819 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 5: the educational system to educate their slaves. Hell no. So 820 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,440 Speaker 5: when you're talking about what the problem is, its complex. 821 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 5: You just got to deal with it one at a time. 822 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 5: So all we just got to be engaged in committed 823 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 5: to do it. And so you said it best. It's 824 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 5: easy to participate, it's easy to speak about it. But 825 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 5: you're right, call we about solutions and one brother, docle. 826 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: We got to check the traffic we having at different cities. 827 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: And for the folks who are listening to us, and 828 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 1: we've got people listenings all over the world listen to us. 829 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 1: This is not a typical African American community that you're hearing. 830 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,359 Speaker 1: This is just a small fractional part of it. Most 831 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: of us we live together. We're good we're not killing 832 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: each other. I just want to get that out there 833 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 1: because some people run with it and think this is 834 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: what we are and then react on that. Anyway, as 835 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 1: I mentioned, we've got to check the traffic and weather 836 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 1: in out different cities three minutes away from the top 837 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 1: day our family.

And 844 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 1: I guess their brother, Tyrel Muhammad's been on a crusade 845 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: for decades now trying to, you know, find a key 846 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: to what's the crime problem in Washington, d C. And 847 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: before we left for the traffic and weather update, I 848 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: had to mention the fact that you know, because we 849 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: have folks who listen to us all the time and 850 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: you guys may not know this, and they don't interact 851 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 1: with us in our community, and they think this is 852 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,439 Speaker 1: all our community is all about. And I just again 853 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 1: it's just a fraction, it's not all of them. But 854 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: the problem is our problem. The other folks really don't care. 855 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: We have to solve this problem. This is what brother 856 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: Dyrel Mohammad's been trying to do. It's trying to come 857 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,720 Speaker 1: to solutions how to solve this problem. In fact, he's needed. 858 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: He says he needs ten thousand fearless men. Can you 859 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: tell us about that part, Brother Diarrel. 860 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the honor more min is the Louis 861 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 5: Pharicon because to stop the killing. I got the idea 862 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 5: from the honorablemen is the Louis Paracon. Make our community 863 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 5: a deces and safe place to live. I got that 864 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,439 Speaker 5: from the honorable men's of the Pharakhon, and he said 865 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 5: we need ten thousand feelers men. He didn't say Muslims. 866 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 5: He said men. Men watch ten thousand feelers men to 867 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 5: get between the guns, the knives, the debt itself to 868 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,400 Speaker 5: save our people. We don't need a lot, because the 869 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 5: Holy Koran says success don't been on numbers. We just 870 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 5: have to get out and engage our people. This is 871 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,800 Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Huh, we have to get out and whatever. 872 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 5: You have a solution of substance. It has to be given. 873 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 5: We can't withhold it back and look at the condition 874 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 5: of our people and just condemn it and don't do 875 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 5: nothing and just watch our people die. To claim that 876 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 5: we have solutions to problems. That's what I'm passionate about 877 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,880 Speaker 5: because it's gonna take all of us to deal with 878 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 5: this generation. Because this generation is like the Joshua generation. 879 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 5: This is the. 880 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 7: Generation that will will free us. They just need right 881 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 7: leadership and right guidance. They don't fear nothing, Carl, That's 882 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 7: why it works with them like that. They don't feel nothing. 883 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 7: This is the generation. So are many of us are 884 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 7: holding going to this system of America. Many of us 885 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:27,240 Speaker 7: we're still on the plantation. So when you talk about solution, 886 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 7: there's things that have to be addressed amongst us that 887 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 7: these young keepers do not want to be a part of. 888 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 5: They don't want to be a part of just for 889 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 5: another show. They see it. They brilliant, the intelligent. I 890 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 5: heard the honorable minutes that Louis Farrakhan say, this is 891 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 5: the best generation that was ever produced in this country. 892 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 5: They just need some guidance. So we can't have the 893 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 5: guidance and don't give it to them. That's what I'm saying, Caul. 894 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: Now, I do appreciate what you're doing, because you know, 895 00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: a lot of folks can see what's going on in 896 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 1: our come you know, and they just bypassion and think 897 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: somebody else is going to solve the problem. And the 898 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: problem is our problem. It's our community. And I keep 899 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,399 Speaker 1: saying this. The other folks don't care if we kill 900 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: each other. In fact, they give it thumbs up because 901 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 1: we're doing their work for them. And that's for the 902 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: part of it. When I was telling you what the 903 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,280 Speaker 1: brother and I keep mentioning a questions says, know thy shelves. 904 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 1: If those young people knew who they were, where they 905 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: come from, came from, and their greatness and our ancestors, 906 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: they wouldn't even say another curse, bad word or a 907 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 1: bad you know, say something negative about another black person 908 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: on this planet. And the problem is that brother says 909 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: that most of us don't know who we are. We've 910 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: heard this. Sister Malcolm's daughter was on the other and 911 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 1: she said the same thing. You know, people don't know 912 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 1: who are So people could tell us that we're this 913 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: and where that you're an adults or you're a foundation 914 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: because they can buil the all that because you don't 915 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: know who you are, and so you follow those folks 916 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 1: who tell you who you are. But you have to 917 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 1: do the research and find out who you are, or 918 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: you have to listen to some of our scholars to 919 00:49:58,000 --> 00:49:59,839 Speaker 1: tell us who we are and show us the way. 920 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:05,239 Speaker 5: Paul, the beautiful thing for me, brother man, was that 921 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 5: other twenty thousand who you're going to have on later on. 922 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 5: Why I was inconcentrated those twenty three years. Remember I 923 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 5: did fifty years as military consignment. I was able to 924 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 5: get that brother's books, the scholarship from him.

He said, 932 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 5: we ain't retreating. We don't conquer or die. And if 933 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 5: our young keeper can learn about Queen Candace from Sudan 934 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 5: and Ethiopia battle to Romans, it's the curate giefs. If 935 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 5: our people can learn about man's of Musa, the richest 936 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:12,760 Speaker 5: first man in the world at that time in Maley Kingdom, 937 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 5: you get that kind of knowledge and it does something 938 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,400 Speaker 5: to you. And this is one of the most vulnerable 939 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:25,520 Speaker 5: Elijah Muhammad, I thank Almighty God for him. What he 940 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 5: was able to produce in the sinkers in America is 941 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,959 Speaker 5: to take us back to the rich history. And he said, 942 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,879 Speaker 5: if you go back sixty thousand years, you wouldn't find 943 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:40,879 Speaker 5: a Negro on the planet. So if that curriculum can 944 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 5: be given to our young people to let them know that, yeah, 945 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 5: we are kings and queens. We rebuilt, will not rebuilt. 946 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 5: We civilize the doctor your Kian's life as they was 947 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 5: in the top ages. And if we knew that, brother, 948 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 5: if we knew our history once again, who want to 949 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 5: teach you? 950 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 1: See? 951 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 5: So when we out in the street call, we have 952 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 5: to continue to go out there some of that, some 953 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 5: of the conversations that we have history. See, and their 954 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 5: eyes light up when they knew all the inventions before 955 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:16,360 Speaker 5: there was a Christopher Columbus, the black man was already 956 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 5: out here over here. The old next to expect when 957 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:21,839 Speaker 5: they know that and found out we was already over here. 958 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 5: That kind of knowledge like that does something to there 959 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 5: because it's foreign to them. And if it's born to them, 960 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 5: that means that their knowledge wasn't given to them in 961 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 5: their homes, and it's not given to them in this 962 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,279 Speaker 5: in this schools. So where are they going to get 963 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 5: it from? They caught up in the gravitational pull of society. 964 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 5: They ain't going time to read nothing. 965 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 1: And I'm saying, Rosie Melligan sound deck.

I have to be free to say 985 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,240 Speaker 5: what I need to say. So when I say certain things, 986 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 5: I'm saying that realistically, I'm dealing with their reality.

You 1038 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 1: said it's time to get in our children's business. What 1039 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:15,080 Speaker 1: do you mean by that? 1040 00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,640 Speaker 8: Absolutely, I mean it's time to get in our children's 1041 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:24,359 Speaker 8: business now, not later, because legally grown does not mean 1042 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 8: life readiness. And I always say to parents' cause don't 1043 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 8: wait for a funeral, don't wait for a laws through 1044 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 8: the hospital bed, a financial collapse. To finally ask questions 1045 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 8: to your children. You know, when you see something, we 1046 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 8: always say when you see something, state something. That's the 1047 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:49,280 Speaker 8: same thing with your children. When you see something, state something, 1048 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 8: it's important. Legal age does not cancel for rental responsibility. 1049 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 8: Being a parent does not expire at eighteen pans mind 1050 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 8: and your children is costing your children everything. Sickness, broken 1051 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:09,360 Speaker 8: marriage is called jail time, even death, as I mentioned, 1052 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 8: So it's time to have a conversation. That's why our 1053 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 8: children are going us straight. Because many parents don't know 1054 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 8: where they kids so leeping over with people's house. They 1055 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 8: don't know. The parents don't know who they're associating with. 1056 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 8: You feel like it's not my business. Whoever they select 1057 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 8: their friend is all right. That's why this generation is 1058 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 8: so far off base because grown folks, parents feel like 1059 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 8: we're the eighteen. I mean, who came up. 1060 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 5: Card with this thing in the first place? 1061 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:51,439 Speaker 8: The eighteen Your hands are off. It's not biblical, it's 1062 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 8: not any place we have to come to realize. We 1063 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 8: can't go by and be comfortable because whether they law fay, 1064 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 8: these are your kids that all said, when they get eighteen, 1065 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 8: you have you can't you can't tell them nothing that 1066 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 8: you can't do nothing with them. If they're sick, you 1067 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 8: can't spank them, but the police can't kill them. It's 1068 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:18,440 Speaker 8: time that we get into that business. When received they're 1069 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 8: doing something. They may hate you now, but I guarantee 1070 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 8: you they will thank you later. Because age does not 1071 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 8: equal wisdom. I'm gonna repeat that age does not equal wisdom. 1072 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 8: Why parents must stay in that children's business. It's not snooping, 1073 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 8: it's not it's about some bindful and I want to 1074 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 8: send that message out to our parents. Get into the business. 1075 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 8: I see telling me, well, I don't go in my 1076 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 8: kids room twelve years old. He ain't got no room, 1077 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 8: he ain't paying no rent. When are we gonna come 1078 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 8: back and be parents the way we used to be 1079 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 8: and stop That's why our kids saw when we started 1080 00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:04,600 Speaker 8: acting lect other people, letting them do what they want to, wear, 1081 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,080 Speaker 8: what they want to, say, what they want to that's 1082 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 8: when we start losing our kids. When we start raising 1083 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 8: them the way grandma and grandpa raised us, with values, 1084 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 8: with respect and making them respect other people, not long 1085 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 8: just you. If our pants heard that we disrebect respecting elder, 1086 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:29,439 Speaker 8: we would hope that nobody told them. But we're stand 1087 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 8: up and letting our kids. It's amazing how somebody's kids 1088 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 8: let their kids stand up to me at eighty years old. 1089 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 5: Rose it. 1090 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 8: I mean, don't even have no respect to say mis 1091 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:45,439 Speaker 8: or grandmama or whatever. But we gotta get into that bitch. 1092 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 8: When you see your kid coming home, call you know 1093 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 8: he doesn't have a job anywhere bringing in new stuff, 1094 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 8: buying stuff. I remember Minister Farrakin talked about that, how 1095 00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 8: PAMs turned their eye to Steff and happen it because 1096 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 8: they're benefitting because he brought you a new coat, he 1097 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,919 Speaker 8: brought you something from the money he got. So I'm 1098 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 8: concerned about this next generation because if we don't take charge, 1099 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 8: the world is making money off of us. When our 1100 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 8: kids are incarcerated, caught, that's a business for other people. 1101 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 8: We are part of the gross national product when our 1102 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,439 Speaker 8: kids are in the system, when they are in foster home. 1103 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 8: It's not meant about our people have foster home. So 1104 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 8: who's making mine off our kids? Who's making money off 1105 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 8: of the error to mistake that we're making fun of 1106 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 8: the things that we're doing. So I'm passionate about saying 1107 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 8: parents get in your children's business because later may never come. 1108 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 1: So let me tell me here, Doctor Rosie at fourteen fifteen, 1109 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,440 Speaker 1: actually right after the top of the eye.

They 1148 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 5: need instruction. 1149 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 8: Ca car who talking who talked them about finance?

So how at what point does the 1157 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 1: parents have to re educate themselves about business, about banking, 1158 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 1: about credit and all that.

Dodtor Rosie is an author who's a 1167 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:45,560 Speaker 1: publisher as well as a business person. She's got a 1168 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: store out in Los Angeles, and she said this morning, 1169 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 1: she says, we need to get in our children's business. 1170 01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 1: We need to find out what's going on in their 1171 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 1: lives and all this. Doctor Rosie, it seems she's coming 1172 01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 1: from the breakdown of the Black family, because that used 1173 01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:00,040 Speaker 1: to be the case. We used to be close to 1174 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,480 Speaker 1: with our children. And my question too is what age 1175 01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 1: do we start having these conversations about finance. Example, So 1176 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 1: you know, as you mentioned in early I said, the 1177 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,200 Speaker 1: late teens, early twenties, and young people now and they're 1178 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:15,960 Speaker 1: still coming to borrow money and all this and then 1179 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 1: making some of these mistakes that if you were taught earlier, 1180 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,280 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have made those mistakes. But at what age 1181 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 1: do we start this and how can we do many 1182 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 1: of our parents, many of the parents don't know these 1183 01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 1: rules and regulations themselves. 1184 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 8: Well, then what happened. That's why it's so important. Grandparents 1185 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 8: are so important in children lives because let me say, 1186 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 8: what has happened to our community, as you well know, 1187 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 8: specially coming from LA during the years when drugs was 1188 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 8: planted in our community, we almost we lost the potential 1189 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:55,240 Speaker 8: of the generation that power because many of them was 1190 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 8: involved with drugs. A lot of children well had absente 1191 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 8: parents because they was locked up. And during that time 1192 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,440 Speaker 8: we lived a little history. Grandmama couldn't even keep the 1193 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 8: kid because she didn't have enough money to do it 1194 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 8: on our own, and this system would not allow that 1195 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:17,600 Speaker 8: grandmother or the family members could take these children, so 1196 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 8: they were dropped into foster homes. So now we're looking 1197 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 8: at children who didn't have rearing and instruction by their parents, 1198 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 8: and they are out trying to operate on their own. 1199 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 8: So we need to see ourselves as an extension the 1200 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 8: way it used to be. That this child belongs to 1201 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 8: all of us. So we got to come back to 1202 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 8: a community approach. Since we know the problem, We know 1203 01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 8: these what happened to these children, and we acting as 1204 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 8: if we don't know. So we stand on the side 1205 01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 8: nine rule. They sold these They stupid they did. They 1206 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 8: don't have no training. 1207 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:54,200 Speaker 5: Who train them? 1208 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 8: They don't know even a man of our young kids 1209 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 8: don't even have a checking account, They don't know anything 1210 01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:05,080 Speaker 8: about credit. They get all messed up and they get 1211 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,920 Speaker 8: locked out of the bank system. Now they have to 1212 01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 8: go to check cashing places, paying to cash a check 1213 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 8: for the money that they have worked for. So that 1214 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 8: child may not know, but you next door and you 1215 01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:20,760 Speaker 8: know that mama next door don't know anything, then you 1216 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 8: need to reach out and try and be a mother 1217 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 8: a pair to that child. We all gonna have to 1218 01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 8: be responsible for trying to save our people, because if 1219 01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 8: we don't, that child that you don't care about is 1220 01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:35,440 Speaker 8: the one that's. 1221 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 5: Subject to kill. 1222 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 8: Your child standing there the ATM trying to get money 1223 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 8: because nobody cared about him when we understand that this 1224 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 8: thing is about all of us and not about me, 1225 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 8: because I'm doing well, I'm my kid educated, I'm living 1226 01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:54,280 Speaker 8: on this side of the town. Whatever side of town 1227 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:59,320 Speaker 8: you're living on does not make you safe. So yes, 1228 01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 8: we need to getting our children. This some cruen you 1229 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 8: think about legally grown. There's a dangerous myth. Age does not, 1230 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:12,200 Speaker 8: as I say eco wisdom, age do not equal preparation. 1231 01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:16,600 Speaker 8: Age does not equal protection. And I know some parents 1232 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,520 Speaker 8: will worry about it if I get it. If I 1233 01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 8: say this, they may not like me. Being a parent 1234 01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 8: is not about being like. It really isn't real. Parenting 1235 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 8: isn't about being like. Temporarily anger is cheaper than permanent regret, 1236 01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:37,160 Speaker 8: so you worry about your child being angry. When I 1237 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:41,200 Speaker 8: do estate planning, car I have parents who have a 1238 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 8: child on drugs, doing everything, and they want to need 1239 01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 8: that child on a house with the other three kids 1240 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,760 Speaker 8: that they have, And I say, well, this doesn't make sense. 1241 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 8: You know this child would want to sell the house 1242 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,560 Speaker 8: before they bury you And the parents will look at 1243 01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 8: me and say, well, I don't want Junior to be mad. 1244 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:05,360 Speaker 8: I said mad? Can he dig you up? 1245 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 5: What is he going to do? 1246 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 8: Till we have to make sense getting our children. This 1247 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 8: make sense even when we're leaving and inherited to our children. 1248 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:18,479 Speaker 4: Called. 1249 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:20,519 Speaker 5: My statement to my. 1250 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:24,160 Speaker 8: Clients is this. You know, when it comes to your 1251 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:28,520 Speaker 8: stuff you work hard for, this is not the affirmity 1252 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 8: action program. I want to repeat that because I see 1253 01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 8: that mistake so often. Well, they're all my kids, but 1254 01:08:35,320 --> 01:08:39,599 Speaker 8: you know this is not the affirmity action program. When 1255 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 8: it comes to what you have worked hard and labored for, 1256 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 8: we grown people, we pay him gott to start making 1257 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 8: better decisions. That's why our children left in the economic ditch, 1258 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 8: because we are worried about how they like us and 1259 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 8: what they think. They are not worried about what you think. 1260 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 8: Some of 'em won't do anything that you say do, 1261 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 8: So it's time to get in their business. What's up 1262 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,599 Speaker 8: where you get the money to get this coat from? 1263 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 8: How you doing this? 1264 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 9: Or that? 1265 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:12,760 Speaker 8: I don't kid there in your house or out of 1266 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:18,800 Speaker 8: your house. Pamph Mental guidance should never stop. That's the 1267 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:23,040 Speaker 8: myth for our people where they grown little, make their 1268 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:25,479 Speaker 8: bed hard. They got to lay in all of the 1269 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 8: crazy madness. 1270 01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:28,320 Speaker 4: I got mine. 1271 01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,799 Speaker 5: They get there, come on black coats. 1272 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, but doctor Rosie twenty seven.

That's that's 1276 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: not it's not gonna work out for them. You know 1277 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:48,040 Speaker 1: that because you've been there before. You've got the experience 1278 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:49,960 Speaker 1: or they're getting with the person that you that you 1279 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 1: know doesn't really care for them.

Tweet It says, I have a relative who's 1382 01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 1: married and a fifty year old fifty your old son 1383 01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:01,840 Speaker 1: still is in a house, has never lived on his own. 1384 01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:04,160 Speaker 1: She keeps him there and I see them more than 1385 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:07,479 Speaker 1: I see her with the husband through the years. We 1386 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 1: tried introducing him to people's age, and she jumps in 1387 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 1: and blocks us. When should parents stop being friends with 1388 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:17,720 Speaker 1: their children? What happens if she does? What happens if 1389 01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:20,360 Speaker 1: she does? The husband already said he has to go. 1390 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 8: You never, it's never age of that you stop. Parents understand, 1391 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:31,120 Speaker 8: and they see. 1392 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:33,320 Speaker 5: Especially their mother, a lot of times. They know the. 1393 01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:37,960 Speaker 8: Weakness, They know the downfalls. They know their children because 1394 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,200 Speaker 8: they're the one with him from child up. When the 1395 01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:44,439 Speaker 8: husband is out working, they just don't pay as much 1396 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 8: attention many of them. So there's some weakness. There's something 1397 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:51,640 Speaker 8: there that she knows about her son, but maybe she 1398 01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:56,240 Speaker 8: doesn't know how to prepare him to go further. And 1399 01:15:56,320 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 8: since he's not doing it, then she feels like she 1400 01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,479 Speaker 8: has to to take up to slap to try to 1401 01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 8: protect him. Women don't just try to. We always talk 1402 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:11,240 Speaker 8: about how women's smother and mother that son, backup car. 1403 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,599 Speaker 8: They do the same thing with their hustles. Look at 1404 01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 8: all these men who are not working and some are 1405 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 8: worcome and not to that potential. Do the wife jump 1406 01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 8: up and leave them? No, it's something about black women 1407 01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,879 Speaker 8: that are caretakes us and when we understand the nature 1408 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 8: of black women and then we have to reason out 1409 01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,640 Speaker 8: why they do and try to get counselor and have 1410 01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 8: them to look at because a lot of these women special, 1411 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:43,519 Speaker 8: a lot of single women. They are, you know, like 1412 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,920 Speaker 8: they trying to make these sons. They hustle, he's their 1413 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:49,080 Speaker 8: company where he do this and sometimes they are the 1414 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:52,240 Speaker 8: person who are doing everything for themk. So she has 1415 01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,960 Speaker 8: gotten comfortable for that, but if there's some issues. 1416 01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:58,439 Speaker 5: About the child being away from home, they need to 1417 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:00,000 Speaker 5: work at can he leave? 1418 01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:06,600 Speaker 8: Is he educational, he mentioned it, and emotionally efficient to 1419 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,800 Speaker 8: get a home, specially now in this day people. 1420 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:11,680 Speaker 5: Are going to be living with each other.

Can you culdn be written that way? 1560 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,160 Speaker 1: Or maybe your your person, your your child is is 1561 01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,360 Speaker 1: gonna marry somebody you really don't care here about, so 1562 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,280 Speaker 1: can you protect them? Because you know just by you 1563 01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 1: know and parents know this, they could tell this is 1564 01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:09,599 Speaker 1: not going to last. This relationship is not going to last. 1565 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 1: But you know he might be taken taken to the cleaners. 1566 01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:14,880 Speaker 1: So I got to protect him. Can I do it 1567 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,800 Speaker 1: the way so that when it is in your mind 1568 01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:19,960 Speaker 1: you're going to say, when the engine or divorced, they 1569 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:22,200 Speaker 1: don't get all of his stuff or all of my 1570 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:24,960 Speaker 1: stuff too that I put in here. Can that be done? 1571 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:28,280 Speaker 8: I'm glad you mentioned that because it depends on the 1572 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,879 Speaker 8: laws of the state. In California, this is community property. 1573 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:33,720 Speaker 5: So if I left my daughter. 1574 01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,439 Speaker 8: House and if she was renting that house and she 1575 01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 8: can prove to the court that every time when in 1576 01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 8: that house came from the rent, it did not come 1577 01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 8: from her money. Then that would always remain herself for property. 1578 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 8: But say it was no long on it, but she 1579 01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:52,400 Speaker 8: wanted to borrow money on it. Once she borrowed money 1580 01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 8: on it and having to pay, then it becomes equal 1581 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 8: to the hustling Cause whatever money the wife have in 1582 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 8: the community's what's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. 1583 01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 8: That is another reason why people need to have these 1584 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:10,240 Speaker 8: type of conversations. A car and one thing people have 1585 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:13,559 Speaker 8: to understand. I've heard people say, well, her ex husband 1586 01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 8: can ever come to the house put that in the trust. 1587 01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:19,040 Speaker 8: I say, you cannot move from the grade. That's what 1588 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 8: I want folks understand. Teach while you're here. You can't 1589 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 8: just write something on paper and think that people are 1590 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:29,320 Speaker 8: going to go by that. And sure you don't have 1591 01:25:29,400 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 8: to leave everybody equal their children that people have left 1592 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 8: told it out, but you have to state that I 1593 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:42,120 Speaker 8: purposely and intentionally are omitted to provide for this child 1594 01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 8: in our trust, or you can leave that child or something. 1595 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 8: A lot of people have children inconcerted car. So when 1596 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:53,680 Speaker 8: you're doing your estate planning. Then you do want to 1597 01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 8: say who you want to be over what you're leaving for, 1598 01:25:57,439 --> 01:26:00,160 Speaker 8: or you can say I want you to put his 1599 01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:03,800 Speaker 8: part in a trust for him. 1600 01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:04,360 Speaker 5: You know. 1601 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 8: Yeah, all of these things have to be discussed. You 1602 01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 8: can't leave your child lounge just because he's incarcerated, because 1603 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 8: sometimes they shouldn't even be incarcerated. They did a pleabody, 1604 01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:17,719 Speaker 8: was a good child. There's a lot of good folks 1605 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 8: behind Boss car Our stand at people, but just made 1606 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:25,479 Speaker 8: one mistake. And sometimes that mistake they made is because 1607 01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:31,000 Speaker 8: you didn't get in their business. A lot of children 1608 01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:34,040 Speaker 8: in jail because Paments failed. You saw him going down 1609 01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:36,360 Speaker 8: the wrong road, You saw him hanging out with the 1610 01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 8: wrong people. You saw him coming home buying stuff and 1611 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:42,559 Speaker 8: had no job, but you didn't say nothing. 1612 01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:47,320 Speaker 1: Note away from the top of the are doctor Rosie 1613 01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:49,679 Speaker 1: Millie and doctor Rossie.

We need to be with them through thick 1951 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:39,680 Speaker 4: and thin. So it's important to keep them lifted up 1952 01:44:39,720 --> 01:44:44,200 Speaker 4: in your prayers. That's good, but to also support those 1953 01:44:44,280 --> 01:44:49,599 Speaker 4: people who are making sure that they're checked on regularly 1954 01:44:50,200 --> 01:44:53,080 Speaker 4: and are in a good mental state of being. Because 1955 01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:57,800 Speaker 4: most of what we experience in our lives, most of 1956 01:44:57,920 --> 01:45:02,000 Speaker 4: how we live our lives, is based on how we think. 1957 01:45:02,520 --> 01:45:06,240 Speaker 4: So if you're thinking from a depressed state, if you're 1958 01:45:06,280 --> 01:45:10,120 Speaker 4: thinking that you're on love, then that affects you emotionally, 1959 01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:13,960 Speaker 4: it affects you mentally. And so if we love folks 1960 01:45:14,320 --> 01:45:18,360 Speaker 4: Satday members, friends, scholars. If we love them, then we 1961 01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:21,719 Speaker 4: should check in with them, not just when they're doing well, 1962 01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,479 Speaker 4: but when when when they're not doing well, when they're 1963 01:45:25,520 --> 01:45:28,519 Speaker 4: when their health may be the priding and ask them, 1964 01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:32,479 Speaker 4: you know, what they need. I recall listening to doctor 1965 01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:36,120 Speaker 4: Carr when he was in the prining health. I recall 1966 01:45:36,280 --> 01:45:39,960 Speaker 4: him saying in the lecture, you know, just call and 1967 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:42,840 Speaker 4: check on me, ask me if I want some tea, 1968 01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:46,560 Speaker 4: come over to the house and read to me. You know, 1969 01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:50,360 Speaker 4: he had gone blind in the last decade of his life, 1970 01:45:50,800 --> 01:45:53,439 Speaker 4: and he was a man, he was varicious reader, and 1971 01:45:53,560 --> 01:45:57,240 Speaker 4: so he couldn't read books and magazines as he used to. 1972 01:45:57,720 --> 01:46:00,439 Speaker 4: So folk would come by and just read to him 1973 01:46:00,560 --> 01:46:03,280 Speaker 4: for an hour. And I can't tell you what that 1974 01:46:03,479 --> 01:46:07,360 Speaker 4: meant to a man who devoted his life to lifting yourselp. 1975 01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:10,960 Speaker 4: So there's always things that we can do, and we 1976 01:46:11,080 --> 01:46:15,800 Speaker 4: shouldn't wait until someone dies to say, oh, I wish 1977 01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 4: I I had known this, I wish I'd done that, 1978 01:46:19,000 --> 01:46:23,360 Speaker 4: And that same thought, that same desire should be extended 1979 01:46:23,760 --> 01:46:27,920 Speaker 4: not just to our scholars or high profile personalities, it 1980 01:46:27,920 --> 01:46:31,000 Speaker 4: should be extended to people in your own household. As 1981 01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:34,919 Speaker 4: doctor Rosie was saying. It should be extended to your neighbors, 1982 01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:41,360 Speaker 4: your neighbors across the street who may need their sidewalks 1983 01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 4: shoveled if it's snowing, may need help bringing the garbage 1984 01:46:45,040 --> 01:46:48,720 Speaker 4: cans in. These are things that we can do for 1985 01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:53,080 Speaker 4: each other because they affirm our humanity and they bring 1986 01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:57,680 Speaker 4: us closer together as human beings. As advocates, we are 1987 01:46:58,280 --> 01:47:02,719 Speaker 4: social people. That that is our essence, that is our nature. 1988 01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:06,400 Speaker 4: And you know, I truly appreciated what doctor Rosie was 1989 01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:10,599 Speaker 4: saying about. You know, people living in the same house 1990 01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:14,720 Speaker 4: and they're in their own room, on their telephone, watching television, 1991 01:47:14,800 --> 01:47:18,720 Speaker 4: playing video games, and nobody's communicating. So it's one of 1992 01:47:18,760 --> 01:47:22,320 Speaker 4: the issues that we're having in our lives, in our 1993 01:47:22,400 --> 01:47:27,680 Speaker 4: families and in our communities is that we've allowed technology 1994 01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:33,280 Speaker 4: to replace one on one communications, so that so many 1995 01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:37,600 Speaker 4: young people now do not know how to communicate with 1996 01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:41,320 Speaker 4: another adult, don't know how to communicate with their peers, 1997 01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:45,400 Speaker 4: and so we as adults, and specifically we as elders, 1998 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:48,639 Speaker 4: we have to model that. We can't just tell them 1999 01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:51,200 Speaker 4: put that phone down, you know, don't do this, don't 2000 01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:55,720 Speaker 4: do that, engage them in conversation, right, find ways to 2001 01:47:56,280 --> 01:48:00,519 Speaker 4: get them to listen and encourage them to have common faces, 2002 01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:05,280 Speaker 4: congratulate them, compliment them, and bring them out of their 2003 01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:09,600 Speaker 4: shell and let them understand the value of human to 2004 01:48:09,800 --> 01:48:13,360 Speaker 4: human contact. That's all right there, brother Tony. 2005 01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:15,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, hold, I thought right. We got to step aside 2006 01:48:15,240 --> 01:48:16,920 Speaker 1: a few moments and we'll be back. Man and grand 2007 01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:19,479 Speaker 1: Rising family. Thanks for staying with us on this Thursday morning. 2008 01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,400 Speaker 1: I guess it's chematologist, brother Tony Browner. If you've got 2009 01:48:22,439 --> 01:48:24,439 Speaker 1: a couple of friends, call him up right now, right 2010 01:48:24,520 --> 01:48:26,320 Speaker 1: now and tell them turn on the radio. They'll thank you. 2011 01:48:26,479 --> 01:48:29,120 Speaker 1: Telling the chemotologist Tony brown is on the radio. They're 2012 01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:31,080 Speaker 1: going to learn a lot and they'll appreciate it. They'll 2013 01:48:31,120 --> 01:48:33,800 Speaker 1: thank you for it. But brother Tony's he suited up 2014 01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:37,200 Speaker 1: and ready to go, but he's playing injured this this morning, 2015 01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:39,080 Speaker 1: so he's got to be an issue with his voice. 2016 01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:41,679 Speaker 1: But he'll get better as we go on. So, brother Tony, 2017 01:48:42,280 --> 01:48:44,960 Speaker 1: let's get you. You decided to write another book a 2018 01:48:45,040 --> 01:48:47,559 Speaker 1: broader perspective. Can you tell us about the book? Why 2019 01:48:47,600 --> 01:48:49,760 Speaker 1: you decided to do this issue this book at this point? 2020 01:48:50,920 --> 01:48:54,400 Speaker 4: For sure? Well call again. I apologize to your listeners. 2021 01:48:54,960 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 4: I'm a little horse now. But I'm feeling good. The 2022 01:48:57,360 --> 01:49:00,920 Speaker 4: brain is working and so just bear with me as 2023 01:49:01,120 --> 01:49:05,559 Speaker 4: I had this conversation with Carl this morning. Yeah, Car, 2024 01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:09,920 Speaker 4: I just finished My latest book is at the printer 2025 01:49:10,120 --> 01:49:15,040 Speaker 4: now and we'll be available within the next three weeks. 2026 01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 4: I was on the phone with my printer, Paul Coast 2027 01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:20,639 Speaker 4: the Black Class of Press, last night, and we're working 2028 01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:23,840 Speaker 4: out the timeline for the production of the book and 2029 01:49:23,960 --> 01:49:27,400 Speaker 4: when it should be in bookstores. So this book is 2030 01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:32,640 Speaker 4: the third installment of Broader Foul Essays. I wrote the 2031 01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:37,400 Speaker 4: first Brouder Foul in nineteen eighty nine. Broader Foul two, 2032 01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:42,320 Speaker 4: The Bible Strategies for Africans in America, was published in 2033 01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:47,920 Speaker 4: nineteen ninety five, and this is my third installment of 2034 01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:50,720 Speaker 4: Broader Foul Essays. So it's hard to believe that it's 2035 01:49:50,760 --> 01:49:55,719 Speaker 4: been thirty years since I published my last major book. 2036 01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 4: Now I've done some smaller books since then. I've done 2037 01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:02,760 Speaker 4: a couple bounds graphs. Egypt on the Potomac is the monograph, 2038 01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:06,439 Speaker 4: The Avatar Piece is the monograph, and the last one 2039 01:50:06,479 --> 01:50:10,720 Speaker 4: I did was finding could recommend a book about my 2040 01:50:11,560 --> 01:50:14,920 Speaker 4: excavations with the aster restoration project. So those are smaller 2041 01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:18,880 Speaker 4: books one hundred pages or less. This book is me 2042 01:50:19,120 --> 01:50:23,360 Speaker 4: going back to my source, me doing what I do best, 2043 01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:27,080 Speaker 4: and that is looking at history, looking at current events, 2044 01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:34,920 Speaker 4: and extrapolating from that analysis important, critically important information that 2045 01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:38,040 Speaker 4: will help us understand where we are, how we got 2046 01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,720 Speaker 4: where we are, and what we can do better. So 2047 01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:46,040 Speaker 4: the book is titled A Broader Perspective, and the subtitle 2048 01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:50,240 Speaker 4: of the book is My fifty year Journey to Enlightenment. 2049 01:50:50,600 --> 01:50:53,800 Speaker 4: So what I'm doing now is looking back on the 2050 01:50:53,920 --> 01:50:57,760 Speaker 4: last fifty years of my life. Carl, I'm now officially 2051 01:50:57,960 --> 01:51:02,280 Speaker 4: and undeniably an elder. I'm seventy four years old, and 2052 01:51:02,560 --> 01:51:07,760 Speaker 4: as I reflect on my life, I see now where 2053 01:51:07,920 --> 01:51:12,800 Speaker 4: this journey really began, back in nineteen seventy five, when 2054 01:51:12,840 --> 01:51:16,680 Speaker 4: I met a brother here in Washington, d C. A 2055 01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:20,560 Speaker 4: brother by the name of nanaquab and a Brown. Nnicaban 2056 01:51:20,600 --> 01:51:24,599 Speaker 4: O Brown is an acind priest and he was one 2057 01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:28,160 Speaker 4: of the first people in the DMV to bring the 2058 01:51:28,240 --> 01:51:32,960 Speaker 4: Akine traditions from Ghana, West Africa and introduce him to 2059 01:51:33,080 --> 01:51:37,760 Speaker 4: the Washington, Washington, DC community. Well, I just graduated from 2060 01:51:37,800 --> 01:51:41,800 Speaker 4: Howard in nineteen seventy four and like many people in 2061 01:51:41,880 --> 01:51:45,639 Speaker 4: their early twenties, I hadn't figured out what I wanted 2062 01:51:45,680 --> 01:51:47,920 Speaker 4: to do with my life. I hadn't even figured out 2063 01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:51,720 Speaker 4: who I was as a person. And a friend of 2064 01:51:51,800 --> 01:51:55,439 Speaker 4: mine told me that there was this man in Southeast 2065 01:51:55,560 --> 01:52:00,200 Speaker 4: DC who was doing classes on African spirituality. I was 2066 01:52:00,280 --> 01:52:03,759 Speaker 4: non a carpent the Brown and I attended is seven 2067 01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:07,600 Speaker 4: week class on African spirituality. And at the end of 2068 01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:12,040 Speaker 4: that seven weeks, I now had a black print for 2069 01:52:12,240 --> 01:52:15,240 Speaker 4: my life and now who I knew who I was 2070 01:52:15,840 --> 01:52:20,600 Speaker 4: as a person of African ancestry. I understood African spirituality 2071 01:52:21,080 --> 01:52:26,920 Speaker 4: and the differences between African spirituality and traditional religions. There 2072 01:52:26,920 --> 01:52:33,479 Speaker 4: are fundamental differences. Also learned about African concepts of life 2073 01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:40,080 Speaker 4: after death, which entails the ancestors and acknowledging those souls 2074 01:52:40,120 --> 01:52:43,559 Speaker 4: who have preceded you and are now on the other side, 2075 01:52:43,920 --> 01:52:48,080 Speaker 4: but who are still accessible to you. Those are our ancestors. 2076 01:52:48,479 --> 01:52:53,800 Speaker 4: And then he also impressed me with this concept that 2077 01:52:53,920 --> 01:52:58,040 Speaker 4: we refer to in the West as reincarnation, But what 2078 01:52:58,320 --> 01:53:01,679 Speaker 4: was known in the now Valley is the ghimi mitsu, 2079 01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:04,920 Speaker 4: or of what was referred to as the repetition of 2080 01:53:05,040 --> 01:53:08,640 Speaker 4: the birth. So this idea of this concept, Carl, if 2081 01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:12,720 Speaker 4: you will that the body is tipperary, The body is finite. 2082 01:53:13,040 --> 01:53:17,480 Speaker 4: It only lives and moves and functions for a presquaed 2083 01:53:17,560 --> 01:53:22,799 Speaker 4: period of time and then you die. But the body 2084 01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:29,120 Speaker 4: is animated by different forces and ink in the Nile 2085 01:53:29,240 --> 01:53:33,000 Speaker 4: Valley in Cuse they identify these forces the bay, the car, 2086 01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:38,080 Speaker 4: the covey, it, the wren, the shadow, the name, and 2087 01:53:38,200 --> 01:53:42,479 Speaker 4: these are all aspects of your being that continue to exist. 2088 01:53:42,840 --> 01:53:47,479 Speaker 4: Because as we know, if we study science, energy does 2089 01:53:47,600 --> 01:53:52,200 Speaker 4: not just dissipate. It changes form, but it doesn't just dissipate. 2090 01:53:52,640 --> 01:53:56,320 Speaker 4: So our bodies disintegrate and return back into the earth 2091 01:53:56,720 --> 01:54:02,160 Speaker 4: and form new bodies are So when our body is 2092 01:54:02,280 --> 01:54:06,679 Speaker 4: no longer attached to a soul, that soul goes back 2093 01:54:06,760 --> 01:54:11,839 Speaker 4: to that ram, that dimension of timelessness with souls reside. 2094 01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:16,519 Speaker 4: Spirit is the power that is associated with the creative force, 2095 01:54:16,640 --> 01:54:19,960 Speaker 4: the creative principles that we call God or our law 2096 01:54:20,240 --> 01:54:24,160 Speaker 4: of Jemoba, and that is a force to permeate the universe, 2097 01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:27,840 Speaker 4: and it animates the soul and gives the soul the 2098 01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:32,200 Speaker 4: energy to express itself inside of a body. So once 2099 01:54:32,280 --> 01:54:36,880 Speaker 4: I had a clearer understanding of who I was as 2100 01:54:37,160 --> 01:54:41,520 Speaker 4: a being with multiple beings inside of me. It gave 2101 01:54:41,640 --> 01:54:45,320 Speaker 4: me an understanding of what I had the capacity to do. 2102 01:54:45,920 --> 01:54:48,160 Speaker 4: And at the end of that course, now Nicubin has 2103 01:54:48,200 --> 01:54:50,920 Speaker 4: said something to stay with me for the rest of 2104 01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:53,560 Speaker 4: my life. He said that what you do with this 2105 01:54:53,840 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 4: knowledge were not only determine the quality of this life, 2106 01:54:58,600 --> 01:55:02,000 Speaker 4: but it ultimately would determine the quality of the rest 2107 01:55:02,160 --> 01:55:05,440 Speaker 4: of your lives, right the rest of your lives. So 2108 01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:07,880 Speaker 4: when you think about it in that context, you know, 2109 01:55:08,080 --> 01:55:11,160 Speaker 4: if we do come back, and we do, then the 2110 01:55:11,280 --> 01:55:15,280 Speaker 4: things that we think, stay and do in this lifetime 2111 01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:18,240 Speaker 4: will shape the quality of the lives that we will 2112 01:55:18,320 --> 01:55:22,640 Speaker 4: experience in future lifetimes. So once I got that, Once 2113 01:55:22,720 --> 01:55:27,600 Speaker 4: I understood that, then that knowledge forced me to do right. 2114 01:55:28,160 --> 01:55:31,200 Speaker 4: Not because I was afraid of going to hell, but 2115 01:55:31,440 --> 01:55:34,720 Speaker 4: not because I wanted to live eternity in heaven, but 2116 01:55:34,960 --> 01:55:38,480 Speaker 4: because I understood that heaven and Hell our states of 2117 01:55:38,640 --> 01:55:42,520 Speaker 4: being here on planet Earth, and that if I understood 2118 01:55:42,960 --> 01:55:47,840 Speaker 4: how this energy expresses itself, then I could experience heaven 2119 01:55:48,160 --> 01:55:51,680 Speaker 4: here on Earth, while those who did not understand these 2120 01:55:51,800 --> 01:55:56,080 Speaker 4: principles would be walking in hell every single day. So 2121 01:55:56,200 --> 01:56:00,240 Speaker 4: this knowledge gave me a footing if you will, for 2122 01:56:00,360 --> 01:56:02,600 Speaker 4: how I should live my life. And what's so important 2123 01:56:02,680 --> 01:56:05,360 Speaker 4: CAR is that I was a child who grew up 2124 01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:10,840 Speaker 4: loving our knowledge, loving education, reading, and I learned nothing 2125 01:56:10,880 --> 01:56:14,320 Speaker 4: about this throughout my formal education process. When I was 2126 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:17,360 Speaker 4: young in Chicago, I went to church with my grandmother. 2127 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:20,520 Speaker 4: I learned nothing about this in the church. When I 2128 01:56:20,600 --> 01:56:24,120 Speaker 4: was at Howard University players of paternity, I learned nothing 2129 01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:27,360 Speaker 4: at this in the paternity. So I began to realize 2130 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:30,840 Speaker 4: that there is knowledge out here that is crucial to 2131 01:56:30,960 --> 01:56:35,960 Speaker 4: our ability to live and function as dynamic human beings 2132 01:56:36,280 --> 01:56:39,320 Speaker 4: that has never been a part of our formal educational process. 2133 01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:42,000 Speaker 4: But that knowledge is there, and we have to know 2134 01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:45,000 Speaker 4: that it exists, and we have to be fearless enough. 2135 01:56:45,280 --> 01:56:47,600 Speaker 4: We have to be courageous enough to be able to 2136 01:56:47,760 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 4: seek that knowledge and then incorporate it into our lives, 2137 01:56:52,480 --> 01:56:56,080 Speaker 4: use what is meaningful and helpful, and that then allows 2138 01:56:56,240 --> 01:57:00,040 Speaker 4: us to model what it means to be human, to 2139 01:57:00,160 --> 01:57:02,400 Speaker 4: be an example for other people. And the last thing 2140 01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:07,240 Speaker 4: I'll say about my initial meeting with Nonicuavana Brown was 2141 01:57:07,320 --> 01:57:11,240 Speaker 4: that he had a pretty extensive library, and as I 2142 01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:16,839 Speaker 4: was perusing his library, I saw this book that captured 2143 01:57:16,880 --> 01:57:20,760 Speaker 4: my attention. The book was written by an author by 2144 01:57:20,840 --> 01:57:23,520 Speaker 4: the name of Peter Tompkins, and it was called The 2145 01:57:23,680 --> 01:57:27,200 Speaker 4: Secrets of the Great Pyramid. I borrowed that book from 2146 01:57:27,240 --> 01:57:31,720 Speaker 4: Nicuavana Brown, and it was that book that first got 2147 01:57:31,800 --> 01:57:36,120 Speaker 4: me interested in in ancient Egypt. And so I have 2148 01:57:36,320 --> 01:57:40,560 Speaker 4: not stopped reading and traveling in Egypt since I opened 2149 01:57:40,600 --> 01:57:43,040 Speaker 4: that book. So I can reflect on my life, I 2150 01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:48,120 Speaker 4: can reflect back to nineteen seventy five when I met 2151 01:57:48,200 --> 01:57:51,400 Speaker 4: this man who changed my life and put me on 2152 01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:55,680 Speaker 4: the path that has allowed me to favorably influence the 2153 01:57:55,840 --> 01:57:59,440 Speaker 4: lives of tens of thousands of people all around the world. 2154 01:58:00,040 --> 01:58:04,120 Speaker 4: So the rest of the book deals with my experiences. 2155 01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:08,080 Speaker 4: It deals with the other notable personalities who I have 2156 01:58:08,200 --> 01:58:11,800 Speaker 4: been blessed to encounter, who I've been blessed to have 2157 01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:18,160 Speaker 4: learned from. And I am a vessel which contains the 2158 01:58:18,320 --> 01:58:23,000 Speaker 4: knowledge of scholars, of elders, of people that I love. 2159 01:58:23,320 --> 01:58:25,960 Speaker 4: They poured that knowledge into me. And now that I 2160 01:58:26,080 --> 01:58:30,280 Speaker 4: am an elder, I am encountering younger people, people in 2161 01:58:30,360 --> 01:58:35,000 Speaker 4: their thirties, forties, and fifties, who've read my books, who've 2162 01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:38,480 Speaker 4: attended my lectures, and they're now coming to me asking 2163 01:58:38,560 --> 01:58:42,840 Speaker 4: me for advice, seeking direction, and seeking insights. So this 2164 01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:47,680 Speaker 4: book a broader perspective allows me an opportunity to honor 2165 01:58:47,800 --> 01:58:51,480 Speaker 4: those sisters and brothers who are no longer here who 2166 01:58:51,600 --> 01:58:55,440 Speaker 4: poured themselves into me, and I can share their knowledge 2167 01:58:55,640 --> 01:58:59,000 Speaker 4: with other young sisters and brothers who are looking for 2168 01:58:59,680 --> 01:59:02,520 Speaker 4: a a black trend, if you will, to how they 2169 01:59:02,560 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 4: can best live their lives so that they can be 2170 01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:10,120 Speaker 4: fully functioning human beings and make contributions to themselves, to 2171 01:59:10,280 --> 01:59:14,600 Speaker 4: their families and their communities. And Carl, I would like 2172 01:59:14,680 --> 01:59:18,800 Speaker 4: to thank you publicly. Thank you for writing the forward 2173 01:59:19,520 --> 01:59:25,320 Speaker 4: to this book and just affirming the value that I 2174 01:59:25,600 --> 01:59:29,600 Speaker 4: have sought to share with our community. So, my brother, 2175 01:59:29,760 --> 01:59:32,760 Speaker 4: thank you so much. And I look forward to other 2176 01:59:32,840 --> 01:59:37,200 Speaker 4: opportunities to discuss the book once it's available and have 2177 01:59:37,400 --> 01:59:40,880 Speaker 4: others share with you and share with others what they've 2178 01:59:40,960 --> 01:59:41,920 Speaker 4: learned from this read. 2179 01:59:42,800 --> 01:59:44,560 Speaker 1: All right at twenty eight away from the topic, I 2180 01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:47,400 Speaker 1: want to thank you because Tony, you're a national treasure. 2181 01:59:47,440 --> 01:59:49,800 Speaker 1: Whenever you're on the radio, I gets so much responsible 2182 01:59:49,840 --> 01:59:52,600 Speaker 1: people calling and all this please with what they hear 2183 01:59:52,680 --> 01:59:54,640 Speaker 1: from you. So I got to ask you this question 2184 01:59:54,680 --> 01:59:56,600 Speaker 1: because a couple of weeks ago, we had this discussion 2185 01:59:56,680 --> 02:00:00,040 Speaker 1: on the air about is there a God? And I 2186 02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:02,320 Speaker 1: don't know if you heard the discussion, but some people 2187 02:00:02,360 --> 02:00:06,760 Speaker 1: say they're more confused than before the discussions started about 2188 02:00:06,800 --> 02:00:10,560 Speaker 1: whether if there is a deity, that somebody is superior 2189 02:00:10,720 --> 02:00:13,840 Speaker 1: being other than us. Can you answer that question for 2190 02:00:13,960 --> 02:00:18,720 Speaker 1: some of our folks who are in that area, Sure, sure, sure. 2191 02:00:18,840 --> 02:00:23,960 Speaker 4: So let's just let us be honest with ourselves and 2192 02:00:24,120 --> 02:00:28,000 Speaker 4: let us be honest with the question. It's an excellent question, 2193 02:00:28,400 --> 02:00:30,600 Speaker 4: and we have to be honest with how we unpacked 2194 02:00:30,920 --> 02:00:36,440 Speaker 4: that question. Everything we know about God came from someone else, 2195 02:00:37,320 --> 02:00:40,960 Speaker 4: and they acquired that knowledge from someone else, and so 2196 02:00:41,120 --> 02:00:42,920 Speaker 4: you can go back, you can go back, you can 2197 02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:47,320 Speaker 4: go back. And every person who talks about God talks 2198 02:00:47,360 --> 02:00:50,880 Speaker 4: about books that were written by people that they never knew. 2199 02:00:51,320 --> 02:00:54,920 Speaker 4: And in these books people have written about a voice 2200 02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:59,600 Speaker 4: that came to them or a mysterious being that appeared 2201 02:00:59,640 --> 02:01:03,960 Speaker 4: to them a vision or in a burning bush. So 2202 02:01:04,920 --> 02:01:09,200 Speaker 4: we know, if we're honest with ourselves, that nobody, nobody 2203 02:01:09,240 --> 02:01:11,720 Speaker 4: who is honest with you can tell you that they've 2204 02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:15,600 Speaker 4: ever seen God. Right, So God is a concept, and 2205 02:01:15,720 --> 02:01:18,760 Speaker 4: that's one of the things that doctor Ben often talked 2206 02:01:18,760 --> 02:01:22,440 Speaker 4: about and God them in trouble. Some people got angry 2207 02:01:22,480 --> 02:01:25,320 Speaker 4: with them for saying that. But let's be real. God 2208 02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:28,000 Speaker 4: is the concept. As a matter of fact, word God 2209 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:34,440 Speaker 4: is a German word. Every culture in every nation around 2210 02:01:34,520 --> 02:01:39,320 Speaker 4: the world has their own concepts for this invisible presence 2211 02:01:39,640 --> 02:01:42,240 Speaker 4: which some people refer to as God, which some people 2212 02:01:42,400 --> 02:01:44,920 Speaker 4: refer to our lives, which some people referred to as 2213 02:01:44,920 --> 02:01:47,640 Speaker 4: the Holy Ghost or the Spirit. So if we can 2214 02:01:47,760 --> 02:01:51,000 Speaker 4: just step back and look at it from that perspective, 2215 02:01:51,400 --> 02:01:55,120 Speaker 4: then there are forces out here in this multiverse that 2216 02:01:55,320 --> 02:02:00,840 Speaker 4: extend beyond the human brain's capacity to comprehend. That is real. 2217 02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:05,280 Speaker 4: That is real, and so people have made a living, 2218 02:02:05,920 --> 02:02:10,120 Speaker 4: people have made a fortune trying to describe what this 2219 02:02:10,440 --> 02:02:13,880 Speaker 4: unseen presence is. That's what religions are all about. So, 2220 02:02:14,000 --> 02:02:17,840 Speaker 4: if we're honest with ourselves, if there's only one God, 2221 02:02:18,520 --> 02:02:21,280 Speaker 4: and then let's just huge Christianity for an example, since 2222 02:02:21,320 --> 02:02:24,320 Speaker 4: we live in a Christian nation. If there's only one God, 2223 02:02:24,640 --> 02:02:27,560 Speaker 4: then why are there so many different Bibles? Why are 2224 02:02:27,600 --> 02:02:31,040 Speaker 4: there so many different versions of this God's story? Why 2225 02:02:31,040 --> 02:02:34,560 Speaker 4: are there so many churches? Why are there so many denominations? 2226 02:02:34,880 --> 02:02:39,200 Speaker 4: The presence of all these different interpretations means that no 2227 02:02:39,360 --> 02:02:43,520 Speaker 4: one clearly has an understanding of what God is or 2228 02:02:43,760 --> 02:02:47,960 Speaker 4: how God expresses itself. But the critical thing is that 2229 02:02:48,360 --> 02:02:53,720 Speaker 4: every being, every people have a need to acknowledge an 2230 02:02:53,880 --> 02:02:59,400 Speaker 4: unseen force that is greater than themselves. That's real, that's 2231 02:02:59,440 --> 02:03:02,320 Speaker 4: something that is a part of our psychological nature. And 2232 02:03:02,440 --> 02:03:06,240 Speaker 4: so what has happened within traditional religion is because of 2233 02:03:06,320 --> 02:03:10,040 Speaker 4: the fact that we live in a male dominated society, 2234 02:03:10,720 --> 02:03:15,720 Speaker 4: God is portrayed as a man, and more specifically, because 2235 02:03:15,800 --> 02:03:20,520 Speaker 4: we live in a white, male dominated culture, God is 2236 02:03:20,640 --> 02:03:25,720 Speaker 4: presented as a white man with a long flowing beard. Now, 2237 02:03:26,200 --> 02:03:29,240 Speaker 4: if white people represent less than ten percent of the 2238 02:03:29,320 --> 02:03:32,560 Speaker 4: world's population, and if you travel to other parts of 2239 02:03:32,600 --> 02:03:36,240 Speaker 4: the world, as Ronoko Ushidi did, as Wayne Chandler did, 2240 02:03:36,560 --> 02:03:40,240 Speaker 4: as other scholars did, and talked to other people about 2241 02:03:40,320 --> 02:03:44,480 Speaker 4: their concepts of God, this unseen Creator, than what you 2242 02:03:44,520 --> 02:03:47,400 Speaker 4: will find is that in all of these other cultures, 2243 02:03:47,880 --> 02:03:52,040 Speaker 4: all of these people identify a creator who looks like them, 2244 02:03:52,760 --> 02:03:57,480 Speaker 4: a creator who comes from their own personal and cultural experiences. 2245 02:03:57,840 --> 02:04:02,680 Speaker 4: But the reason why Africans in America clinging to this vision, 2246 02:04:03,160 --> 02:04:07,480 Speaker 4: this perception of a blonde hair, blue eyed Jesus is 2247 02:04:07,560 --> 02:04:13,000 Speaker 4: because we were enslaved by white people who created this myth, 2248 02:04:13,520 --> 02:04:17,840 Speaker 4: this lie of a blonde hair, blue eye Jesus. I 2249 02:04:17,960 --> 02:04:21,160 Speaker 4: called last week, last Thursday. If I'm not mistaken, you 2250 02:04:21,240 --> 02:04:23,640 Speaker 4: had a brother from the uk or who had written 2251 02:04:23,680 --> 02:04:26,920 Speaker 4: a book about the slave ship Jesus. And this is 2252 02:04:26,960 --> 02:04:31,520 Speaker 4: an intelligent, articulate brother who is a Christian, who did 2253 02:04:31,600 --> 02:04:35,200 Speaker 4: his research and he showed the extent to which the 2254 02:04:35,400 --> 02:04:41,680 Speaker 4: Queen of England was responsible in creating all of the 2255 02:04:41,800 --> 02:04:49,680 Speaker 4: business institutions responsible for industrializing slavery and made it possible 2256 02:04:50,160 --> 02:04:53,760 Speaker 4: for tens of millions of asking men, women and children 2257 02:04:53,840 --> 02:04:56,760 Speaker 4: to be stolen and to be enslaved in the name 2258 02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:00,440 Speaker 4: of God. Now those actions ended up them said, are 2259 02:05:00,720 --> 02:05:04,800 Speaker 4: un godly. So we have to understand by giving that reality, 2260 02:05:05,320 --> 02:05:09,040 Speaker 4: some people still find it necessary to cling to their 2261 02:05:09,160 --> 02:05:12,200 Speaker 4: oppressor's concepts of God. 2262 02:05:12,560 --> 02:05:14,760 Speaker 1: Because right and hold that thought right there, brother Tony, 2263 02:05:14,880 --> 02:05:16,440 Speaker 1: I let you finish your thought on there. Sorry to 2264 02:05:16,440 --> 02:05:19,560 Speaker 1: step away for a few moments. Interesting perspective about God. 2265 02:05:19,680 --> 02:05:22,600 Speaker 1: It all started a few weeks ago. Family, You remember 2266 02:05:22,640 --> 02:05:25,800 Speaker 1: the discussions, and I mentioned I asked brother Tony the 2267 02:05:25,880 --> 02:05:28,600 Speaker 1: question because one of the people who were discussing, he says, man, 2268 02:05:28,680 --> 02:05:31,560 Speaker 1: I'm still confused.

We had this discussion earlier this week 2278 02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:55,800 Speaker 1: of a few weeks ago about of there guidance I mentioned. 2279 02:05:55,840 --> 02:05:58,200 Speaker 1: One of the folks who started discussion says he's more 2280 02:05:58,240 --> 02:06:01,120 Speaker 1: confused now than ever after hearing it. Everybody's this is 2281 02:06:01,360 --> 02:06:03,240 Speaker 1: if there is a god. So we got a brother 2282 02:06:03,320 --> 02:06:05,520 Speaker 1: Tony here to break that down for us. Before we 2283 02:06:05,600 --> 02:06:06,920 Speaker 1: go back to him, I just want to remind you 2284 02:06:06,960 --> 02:06:08,840 Speaker 1: tomorrow is open for on Friday, We're gonna give you 2285 02:06:08,840 --> 02:06:10,840 Speaker 1: a chance to free your mind, think for yourself, that's 2286 02:06:10,880 --> 02:06:13,000 Speaker 1: all that means, and reach out to us starting at 2287 02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:15,840 Speaker 1: six am Eastern time right here in Baltimore on ten 2288 02:06:15,960 --> 02:06:19,360 Speaker 1: ten WLB and also in the DMV here I'm fourteen 2289 02:06:19,440 --> 02:06:23,840 Speaker 1: fifty WL. And the person bro the London attorney that 2290 02:06:25,000 --> 02:06:28,320 Speaker 1: Brother Tony mentioned was a fellow my name of Deli 2291 02:06:28,680 --> 02:06:31,880 Speaker 1: a Gun. Deli a Gun. He wrote that book I 2292 02:06:31,960 --> 02:06:34,680 Speaker 1: thought a slave ship called Jesus. And you can get 2293 02:06:34,720 --> 02:06:36,360 Speaker 1: the copy of that book and see what he's talking about. 2294 02:06:36,400 --> 02:06:38,360 Speaker 1: But brother Tony, I let you finish your thought. Is 2295 02:06:38,440 --> 02:06:39,040 Speaker 1: there a God? 2296 02:06:40,200 --> 02:06:45,880 Speaker 4: Sure? And so Carl is I share my comments. Let 2297 02:06:45,920 --> 02:06:50,520 Speaker 4: me be clear, I'm not saying these words to disparage 2298 02:06:50,640 --> 02:06:55,880 Speaker 4: anybody's religion, because everybody has the right to have their 2299 02:06:56,000 --> 02:06:59,240 Speaker 4: own relationship with the Creator, however they interpret their Creator. 2300 02:07:00,040 --> 02:07:03,760 Speaker 4: Not disparaging anybody, because we all need something in our lives, 2301 02:07:03,840 --> 02:07:07,520 Speaker 4: something to hold on to, something that gives us faith 2302 02:07:07,560 --> 02:07:09,880 Speaker 4: if you will, and the courage to keep fighting. So 2303 02:07:10,280 --> 02:07:14,560 Speaker 4: I'm not disparaging that. So please don't misinterpret what I'm saying. 2304 02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:17,960 Speaker 4: What I'm saying is I have an inquisitive mind. I 2305 02:07:18,080 --> 02:07:21,000 Speaker 4: grew up in the church my grandmother. My grandmother was 2306 02:07:21,080 --> 02:07:23,600 Speaker 4: the most religious person I ever met in my life, 2307 02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:26,560 Speaker 4: and I love her to life. But what I found 2308 02:07:26,640 --> 02:07:29,360 Speaker 4: when I went to church is that she couldn't answer 2309 02:07:29,480 --> 02:07:32,720 Speaker 4: basic questions. You know, as a child growing up, she 2310 02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:36,480 Speaker 4: had one of these old big Bibles that our grandparents 2311 02:07:36,560 --> 02:07:40,720 Speaker 4: had with pictures of white Jesus and white angels and 2312 02:07:40,800 --> 02:07:43,560 Speaker 4: white So I asked my grandmother, why is everybody in 2313 02:07:43,600 --> 02:07:46,240 Speaker 4: the Bible white? She said, well, baby, that doesn't matter. 2314 02:07:46,400 --> 02:07:48,800 Speaker 4: The color doesn't matter. But I went to church with her. 2315 02:07:49,240 --> 02:07:52,040 Speaker 4: I saw things going on with the church that as 2316 02:07:52,080 --> 02:07:55,240 Speaker 4: a child I knew wasn't right. The pastor was having 2317 02:07:55,280 --> 02:07:59,200 Speaker 4: a relationship with his deacons wife. There were things going 2318 02:07:59,240 --> 02:08:02,200 Speaker 4: on that I knew who wasn't right. And so if 2319 02:08:02,240 --> 02:08:04,000 Speaker 4: the church is supposed to be the house of God, 2320 02:08:04,120 --> 02:08:07,400 Speaker 4: I saw these contradictions. So I began to question things, 2321 02:08:07,800 --> 02:08:10,320 Speaker 4: and I began to step away from the church because 2322 02:08:10,360 --> 02:08:13,400 Speaker 4: it wasn't what I was told it was. And so 2323 02:08:14,440 --> 02:08:17,000 Speaker 4: as I saw to get more answers to these questions, 2324 02:08:17,520 --> 02:08:21,160 Speaker 4: I would read I read. You know, if anybody really 2325 02:08:21,200 --> 02:08:26,200 Speaker 4: wants to understand God, read John Jackson's Christianity Before Christ. 2326 02:08:26,640 --> 02:08:30,919 Speaker 4: John Jackson is one of the most eloquent writers about religion, 2327 02:08:31,280 --> 02:08:34,680 Speaker 4: and it gives you a very clear and concise understanding 2328 02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:38,680 Speaker 4: about other people and other cultures throughout the world have 2329 02:08:38,920 --> 02:08:42,480 Speaker 4: viewed this thing called God or viewed this thing called religion. 2330 02:08:42,760 --> 02:08:45,600 Speaker 4: I've been blessed to have traveled to Israel. I went 2331 02:08:45,600 --> 02:08:48,720 Speaker 4: to Israel was Reverend WILLI Wilson in two thousand. I've 2332 02:08:48,760 --> 02:08:52,160 Speaker 4: been to Rome. I've been to the Vatican three times, 2333 02:08:53,120 --> 02:08:55,160 Speaker 4: and I can tell you, based on my own personal 2334 02:08:55,240 --> 02:08:58,560 Speaker 4: experiences that thest that is one of the most unholy 2335 02:08:58,680 --> 02:09:02,600 Speaker 4: places I've ever been in my life. There's such this 2336 02:09:03,080 --> 02:09:08,800 Speaker 4: there's such this display of wealth that contradicts everything that 2337 02:09:09,040 --> 02:09:12,839 Speaker 4: Jesus was supposedly about. And so when you start asking questions, 2338 02:09:13,320 --> 02:09:16,560 Speaker 4: you know, and the Catholic Church is supposedly the church 2339 02:09:16,600 --> 02:09:21,000 Speaker 4: that was started by Peter, and it represents God's traditions 2340 02:09:21,040 --> 02:09:24,520 Speaker 4: and Jesus's traditions. Well, why has there been all of 2341 02:09:24,640 --> 02:09:29,080 Speaker 4: these stories and all of these lawsuits about pedophile priests, 2342 02:09:29,440 --> 02:09:33,600 Speaker 4: priests molesting little boys, priests molesting little girls. And what 2343 02:09:33,760 --> 02:09:35,960 Speaker 4: I can tell you, what I can tell you call 2344 02:09:36,080 --> 02:09:38,320 Speaker 4: based on what I know now. What I think is 2345 02:09:38,440 --> 02:09:41,600 Speaker 4: that priests that I have talked to, Theologians that I've 2346 02:09:41,640 --> 02:09:45,400 Speaker 4: talked to know that those teachings are not real, They're 2347 02:09:45,520 --> 02:09:47,880 Speaker 4: not meant to be taken literally. I have a very 2348 02:09:47,920 --> 02:09:50,880 Speaker 4: good friend who's a pastor, and he told me, Tony, 2349 02:09:51,040 --> 02:09:54,440 Speaker 4: the Bible contains truth. But the Bible is not true. 2350 02:09:54,760 --> 02:09:57,600 Speaker 4: The book was never meant to be taken literally. It 2351 02:09:57,760 --> 02:10:03,320 Speaker 4: was written in allegories, fables, and symbols for an illiterate people, 2352 02:10:03,560 --> 02:10:06,959 Speaker 4: for people who couldn't read. So he created these ideas 2353 02:10:07,440 --> 02:10:11,320 Speaker 4: and concepts that you're planting in people's minds in order 2354 02:10:11,400 --> 02:10:15,480 Speaker 4: to get them to believe in a force outside of themselves. 2355 02:10:15,720 --> 02:10:19,160 Speaker 4: They controlled every aspects of their lives. So to a 2356 02:10:19,320 --> 02:10:23,440 Speaker 4: large extent, religion has been used as a tool to 2357 02:10:23,680 --> 02:10:27,600 Speaker 4: keep people in line. And so if we can grasp that, 2358 02:10:28,200 --> 02:10:31,360 Speaker 4: then we can begin to separate our emotions from what 2359 02:10:31,480 --> 02:10:35,320 Speaker 4: it is. But the other reality is is that I 2360 02:10:35,480 --> 02:10:38,240 Speaker 4: know from our own personal experiences that there is a 2361 02:10:38,400 --> 02:10:40,800 Speaker 4: force what some people call God. They create a force 2362 02:10:41,040 --> 02:10:43,800 Speaker 4: some people call my aud that is real, and that 2363 02:10:43,960 --> 02:10:47,040 Speaker 4: when you acknowledge that force and know how to connect 2364 02:10:47,120 --> 02:10:50,000 Speaker 4: with it, and know how to amplify the presences of 2365 02:10:50,040 --> 02:10:52,120 Speaker 4: that force in your life, then you can do some 2366 02:10:52,280 --> 02:10:55,600 Speaker 4: miraculous things. Carl, you refer to me as a chemicologist. 2367 02:10:55,680 --> 02:10:58,160 Speaker 4: Some people call me an Egyptologist. Some people call me 2368 02:10:58,240 --> 02:11:02,600 Speaker 4: an archaeologist because I've and excavating tunes, funding the excavation 2369 02:11:02,720 --> 02:11:05,440 Speaker 4: of tunes in Egypt for over fifteen years. Some people 2370 02:11:05,480 --> 02:11:08,200 Speaker 4: call me a lecturer and a writer and all these things. 2371 02:11:08,480 --> 02:11:10,680 Speaker 4: I can tell you now that I have no formal 2372 02:11:10,800 --> 02:11:14,400 Speaker 4: training in any of those disciplines, but I have excelled 2373 02:11:14,520 --> 02:11:17,480 Speaker 4: in all of them because I have a relationship. I 2374 02:11:17,520 --> 02:11:20,880 Speaker 4: have a personal relationship with this force that people call God. 2375 02:11:21,240 --> 02:11:24,760 Speaker 4: I don't see it through the European lens. I don't 2376 02:11:24,760 --> 02:11:27,120 Speaker 4: see it through the Jewish lens. I don't see it 2377 02:11:27,200 --> 02:11:31,680 Speaker 4: through the Arabic lens. I see it through an African 2378 02:11:31,800 --> 02:11:37,320 Speaker 4: centered lens. That helps me understand that this creative force 2379 02:11:38,160 --> 02:11:42,320 Speaker 4: is available to anyone who acknowledges it and who knows 2380 02:11:42,640 --> 02:11:46,200 Speaker 4: how to tap into it and use it. George Washington Carver, 2381 02:11:46,680 --> 02:11:50,760 Speaker 4: the Wizard from Tuskegee, wrote about this in his publication. 2382 02:11:50,960 --> 02:11:53,640 Speaker 4: He talked about he will go out into the force 2383 02:11:54,080 --> 02:11:58,520 Speaker 4: every morning before sunrise and walk in the force to 2384 02:11:58,840 --> 02:12:03,840 Speaker 4: commune with his creator, and he would have conversations with 2385 02:12:04,040 --> 02:12:07,240 Speaker 4: the Creator, and then he would come back to his 2386 02:12:07,400 --> 02:12:14,000 Speaker 4: laboratory after having cultivated this relationship, and then he would 2387 02:12:14,040 --> 02:12:17,960 Speaker 4: communicate with the plants in his laboratory and ask those 2388 02:12:18,040 --> 02:12:22,000 Speaker 4: plants to reveal their secrets to him. And that's how 2389 02:12:22,080 --> 02:12:25,360 Speaker 4: he created for two hundred products from the peanut all 2390 02:12:25,400 --> 02:12:28,200 Speaker 4: these other products from the soybeing another plant. So this 2391 02:12:28,440 --> 02:12:33,000 Speaker 4: is a spiritual connection to nature or the natural rule, 2392 02:12:33,240 --> 02:12:37,120 Speaker 4: which Africans have known about for tens of thousands of years. 2393 02:12:37,480 --> 02:12:41,320 Speaker 4: So in order for Europeans and Arabs, and I can't 2394 02:12:41,400 --> 02:12:45,320 Speaker 4: let Arabs off the hook because seven hundred years before Europeans, 2395 02:12:45,680 --> 02:12:50,520 Speaker 4: European Christians came into Africa to colonize and control and 2396 02:12:50,680 --> 02:12:53,760 Speaker 4: enslaved Africans, Arabs did it for seven hundred years. They 2397 02:12:53,840 --> 02:12:57,440 Speaker 4: brought in Islam and used Islam to kill in the 2398 02:12:57,600 --> 02:13:00,760 Speaker 4: name of Allah. That's real. And if we're going to 2399 02:13:00,800 --> 02:13:04,720 Speaker 4: be honest with our discussion about God, about the Creator, 2400 02:13:04,960 --> 02:13:07,080 Speaker 4: about our Loah, we need to be honest with the 2401 02:13:07,360 --> 02:13:11,839 Speaker 4: history of how people have used these concepts to control 2402 02:13:11,960 --> 02:13:15,839 Speaker 4: and manipulate others. So what I'm really saying in summary 2403 02:13:16,520 --> 02:13:18,760 Speaker 4: is that there is a force and you start to 2404 02:13:18,880 --> 02:13:23,600 Speaker 4: show call with grand rising, grand rising. What is grand rising? 2405 02:13:23,960 --> 02:13:27,840 Speaker 4: Grand rising is current nhru. Grand rising is a phrase 2406 02:13:27,880 --> 02:13:30,960 Speaker 4: that was used in the Nile Valley encouraging people inviting 2407 02:13:31,000 --> 02:13:34,400 Speaker 4: people to come forth by day, to come forth by day. 2408 02:13:34,560 --> 02:13:36,520 Speaker 4: They just to come into a new day when the 2409 02:13:36,640 --> 02:13:39,760 Speaker 4: sun rises. And so the name of the sun when 2410 02:13:39,840 --> 02:13:43,280 Speaker 4: it rises in the morning, that grand rising that's kept ray. 2411 02:13:43,920 --> 02:13:48,000 Speaker 4: Kept Ray is an African word that identifies the rebirth 2412 02:13:48,520 --> 02:13:52,200 Speaker 4: of this creative spirit in our lives. On this day, 2413 02:13:52,760 --> 02:13:56,280 Speaker 4: when the sun reaches its highest point at noon, it 2414 02:13:56,440 --> 02:14:00,720 Speaker 4: was known as ray, was known as ray or acknowledges 2415 02:14:00,760 --> 02:14:04,440 Speaker 4: the Creator on high. When the sun set and disappeared 2416 02:14:04,800 --> 02:14:08,360 Speaker 4: beneath the horizon, it was called our men. Jews use 2417 02:14:08,440 --> 02:14:11,160 Speaker 4: that word i'm in, Muslims use that word i'm in. 2418 02:14:12,120 --> 02:14:14,560 Speaker 4: Christians use that word i'm in. Oman is a word 2419 02:14:14,640 --> 02:14:18,000 Speaker 4: that comes straight out of the Nile Valley and identifies 2420 02:14:18,080 --> 02:14:23,600 Speaker 4: the unseen presence of the Creator. So people have identified 2421 02:14:23,720 --> 02:14:27,680 Speaker 4: this unseen, I knowable source that is responsible for all 2422 02:14:27,760 --> 02:14:31,760 Speaker 4: there is. And so what our ancestors have left us 2423 02:14:32,520 --> 02:14:35,640 Speaker 4: is the means by which we can understand how this 2424 02:14:35,960 --> 02:14:41,240 Speaker 4: force expresses itself within the environment. And this environment was 2425 02:14:41,280 --> 02:14:45,880 Speaker 4: referred to as nature, and in Chemic that term was nature, 2426 02:14:46,120 --> 02:14:50,080 Speaker 4: which means the principles or the aspects of the one 2427 02:14:50,640 --> 02:14:54,440 Speaker 4: powerful source of creation. So there are multiple aspects. There 2428 02:14:54,480 --> 02:14:58,480 Speaker 4: are many different ways to know the Creator. There's not 2429 02:14:58,720 --> 02:15:02,760 Speaker 4: just one way. It's not just one path. There's many 2430 02:15:02,880 --> 02:15:06,960 Speaker 4: different ways, and all of those ways I'm valid if 2431 02:15:07,000 --> 02:15:11,879 Speaker 4: you're using them to know yourself and to cultivate meaningful 2432 02:15:12,000 --> 02:15:17,000 Speaker 4: relationships with other human beings. If you are in saving 2433 02:15:17,160 --> 02:15:20,280 Speaker 4: someone in the name of God, you don't know God. 2434 02:15:20,720 --> 02:15:23,800 Speaker 4: If you're conquering somebody in the name of God, you 2435 02:15:24,240 --> 02:15:27,680 Speaker 4: don't know God. You are dealing with an avarition. You're 2436 02:15:27,720 --> 02:15:33,200 Speaker 4: dealing with a distorted percession of spirituality which will condemn 2437 02:15:33,840 --> 02:15:38,200 Speaker 4: any person to eternal hell for across multiple lifetimes. So 2438 02:15:38,400 --> 02:15:42,240 Speaker 4: as this world is changing, and as Hugh was mentioned 2439 02:15:42,240 --> 02:15:45,640 Speaker 4: that in her commentary, we live in a changing world. 2440 02:15:46,000 --> 02:15:49,240 Speaker 4: Quincy Jones said a song that said everything must change, 2441 02:15:49,640 --> 02:15:53,080 Speaker 4: nothing remains the same. That's the beauty of life. We 2442 02:15:53,200 --> 02:15:57,280 Speaker 4: are evolving people, and as we evolve, we are supposed 2443 02:15:57,320 --> 02:16:00,640 Speaker 4: to grow. And as we grow, we gain more knowledge 2444 02:16:00,840 --> 02:16:03,480 Speaker 4: and we apply that knowledge in our lives. And it 2445 02:16:03,600 --> 02:16:06,560 Speaker 4: is through the application of the knowledge that we understand 2446 02:16:06,840 --> 02:16:10,440 Speaker 4: what works and we do life better and we can 2447 02:16:10,840 --> 02:16:14,000 Speaker 4: we have the potential now to create things which will 2448 02:16:14,080 --> 02:16:16,320 Speaker 4: make the quality of life better and the last thing 2449 02:16:16,360 --> 02:16:18,320 Speaker 4: in our end on this note car because is you 2450 02:16:18,360 --> 02:16:20,360 Speaker 4: know I can I can run when I get going, 2451 02:16:20,720 --> 02:16:24,160 Speaker 4: when as ROSMN Jefferies will say, when the African Holy 2452 02:16:24,240 --> 02:16:27,400 Speaker 4: Ghost hits me, I get going, and so and I 2453 02:16:27,840 --> 02:16:30,520 Speaker 4: and I do know and I do acknowledge. It's the 2454 02:16:30,640 --> 02:16:34,040 Speaker 4: spirit of the ancestors that are working through me. Even 2455 02:16:34,080 --> 02:16:36,840 Speaker 4: though my voice is sore, I ain't feeling the pain 2456 02:16:37,000 --> 02:16:39,960 Speaker 4: right now because I have a message to impart to 2457 02:16:40,200 --> 02:16:42,520 Speaker 4: those people who are prepared to hear it, and I 2458 02:16:42,640 --> 02:16:45,120 Speaker 4: have enough sense to know that not everybody can hear it. 2459 02:16:45,480 --> 02:16:47,880 Speaker 4: There's some folks who don't want to hear it, and 2460 02:16:48,080 --> 02:16:52,600 Speaker 4: that's okay. This message ain't for everybody. If this message 2461 02:16:52,640 --> 02:16:56,520 Speaker 4: is for those people who realize times are changing and 2462 02:16:56,640 --> 02:16:59,960 Speaker 4: the people the institutions that we have put our faith 2463 02:17:00,680 --> 02:17:05,039 Speaker 4: has failed us in many instances. The federal government has 2464 02:17:05,160 --> 02:17:10,599 Speaker 4: failed us, churches has failed us. Other institutions, banking institutions 2465 02:17:10,959 --> 02:17:15,080 Speaker 4: have failed us. And we're being exploited as human beings 2466 02:17:15,200 --> 02:17:19,480 Speaker 4: have never been exploited before. And all of this is 2467 02:17:19,600 --> 02:17:23,800 Speaker 4: coming to a head. And so what those who have 2468 02:17:24,040 --> 02:17:28,199 Speaker 4: the presence of mind should be doing is preparing themselves 2469 02:17:28,600 --> 02:17:31,840 Speaker 4: so that when this thing comes to a head, they 2470 02:17:31,920 --> 02:17:35,440 Speaker 4: will not their lives will not be turned upside down, 2471 02:17:35,959 --> 02:17:39,920 Speaker 4: because there are many different ways to ground yourself. To 2472 02:17:40,080 --> 02:17:44,280 Speaker 4: cloak yourself in the spirit of the ancestors or the 2473 02:17:44,360 --> 02:17:48,960 Speaker 4: spirit of the creative forces, and protect yourself and insulate 2474 02:17:49,040 --> 02:17:52,360 Speaker 4: yourself so that you will be able to create a 2475 02:17:52,560 --> 02:17:56,320 Speaker 4: new world, a new heaven here on earth. And that's 2476 02:17:56,360 --> 02:18:00,320 Speaker 4: what human beings have always done. And call everybody who 2477 02:18:00,360 --> 02:18:03,760 Speaker 4: has studied history knows that African people have done it 2478 02:18:04,000 --> 02:18:07,640 Speaker 4: longer and better than any other people on the planet. 2479 02:18:07,959 --> 02:18:12,320 Speaker 4: And it's now time for us to embrace our traditions, 2480 02:18:12,800 --> 02:18:17,240 Speaker 4: our values and do us as we've never done us before. 2481 02:18:18,920 --> 02:18:21,000 Speaker 1: Gotcha, Well, hold that all right there, sticks away from 2482 02:18:21,000 --> 02:18:22,640 Speaker 1: the top. I got some folks want to talk to you. 2483 02:18:22,959 --> 02:18:25,480 Speaker 1: It's got a Craig first. He's calling from Washington, DC's 2484 02:18:25,480 --> 02:18:27,959 Speaker 1: online too, Grand Rising, Craig, you're on with Tony Browner. 2485 02:18:29,840 --> 02:18:35,000 Speaker 9: Grand Rising Brothers.

I've sat under Willie Wilson since I 2490 02:18:49,720 --> 02:18:53,600 Speaker 9: was seven years old. I'm sixty now, so I think 2491 02:18:53,720 --> 02:18:56,880 Speaker 9: that I can ask this question. This is not a 2492 02:18:56,920 --> 02:18:59,680 Speaker 9: trick question. This is the question we've been asking other 2493 02:18:59,760 --> 02:19:03,800 Speaker 9: than God. With the mental capacity that we have as 2494 02:19:03,879 --> 02:19:11,080 Speaker 9: black people right now, should black people join the US military? 2495 02:19:11,760 --> 02:19:15,000 Speaker 9: That's number one, That's the most important question I have. 2496 02:19:15,920 --> 02:19:20,240 Speaker 9: And number two is if, like Willie Wilson has taught us, 2497 02:19:20,400 --> 02:19:24,280 Speaker 9: we are gods children of the most High God. He 2498 02:19:24,440 --> 02:19:28,720 Speaker 9: taught me that since I was a child. I'm asking 2499 02:19:28,840 --> 02:19:33,360 Speaker 9: you if we would have had the Book of Enoch 2500 02:19:33,640 --> 02:19:36,680 Speaker 9: that we have been deprived of, that they study in 2501 02:19:36,800 --> 02:19:42,480 Speaker 9: the Masonic Order in secret, all our questions of religion 2502 02:19:42,680 --> 02:19:46,560 Speaker 9: and God would be answered. And that Book of Enoch 2503 02:19:46,760 --> 02:19:51,720 Speaker 9: is in the oldest Bible known to man, the Ethiopic Bible, 2504 02:19:52,040 --> 02:19:56,840 Speaker 9: the whole Book of Enoch that has been deliberately taken out. 2505 02:19:58,560 --> 02:19:59,240 Speaker 9: That's my question. 2506 02:19:59,360 --> 02:20:02,640 Speaker 4: Brother, Thank you, Thanks Rich Traig. 2507 02:20:02,760 --> 02:20:05,160 Speaker 1: Lit'sten step aside for a few moments, so when we 2508 02:20:05,280 --> 02:20:08,400 Speaker 1: come back, I'll let the Brother Tony respond to your 2509 02:20:08,800 --> 02:20:10,920 Speaker 1: to your questions, and we're step aside so our stations 2510 02:20:10,959 --> 02:20:13,920 Speaker 1: can identify themselves down the line.

About joining the 2520 02:20:36,160 --> 02:20:38,520 Speaker 1: US military and also about the Book of Enoch. So 2521 02:20:38,959 --> 02:20:40,960 Speaker 1: brother Tony, I respond to Craig's questions. 2522 02:20:41,440 --> 02:20:43,120 Speaker 4: Okay, great, Well, the first thing I'm going to do 2523 02:20:43,360 --> 02:20:46,000 Speaker 4: is thank Craig for calling. And I also wanted to 2524 02:20:46,080 --> 02:20:48,680 Speaker 4: give a big shout out to REVERI Wilson pass or 2525 02:20:48,959 --> 02:20:52,360 Speaker 4: Union Temple Baptist Church founding Paths of Union Temple Baptist Church. 2526 02:20:53,480 --> 02:20:57,320 Speaker 4: As I mentioned, I went to Israel and Egypt with 2527 02:20:58,160 --> 02:21:01,120 Speaker 4: Junior Temple and Reverie Willie Wills in two thousand. We 2528 02:21:01,240 --> 02:21:04,680 Speaker 4: did a study toured Egypt with Reverend Wilson the year 2529 02:21:04,760 --> 02:21:07,240 Speaker 4: before that, and so Rever Wilson is one of the 2530 02:21:07,400 --> 02:21:12,000 Speaker 4: few ministers black and white in this city who acknowledges 2531 02:21:12,280 --> 02:21:16,640 Speaker 4: the African origins of these traditions. He's the only minister 2532 02:21:16,800 --> 02:21:20,879 Speaker 4: I know who has a picture of a black Jesus 2533 02:21:21,280 --> 02:21:24,680 Speaker 4: in his pulpit. He's the only minister I know who 2534 02:21:24,840 --> 02:21:29,000 Speaker 4: has pictures of the Twelve Disciples that are depicted as 2535 02:21:30,280 --> 02:21:35,960 Speaker 4: as African American ancestors. Plus Minister Louis FAIRKRD. So he 2536 02:21:36,080 --> 02:21:40,040 Speaker 4: has a non traditional approach to Christianity. And as a 2537 02:21:40,160 --> 02:21:45,119 Speaker 4: result of Reverend Wilson's brilliant approach the teaching the Gospels, 2538 02:21:45,400 --> 02:21:51,000 Speaker 4: He's hated by other Christian ministers. He's hated because Rever 2539 02:21:51,120 --> 02:21:54,680 Speaker 4: Wilson tells it like it is. He tells his parishioners 2540 02:21:54,959 --> 02:21:58,960 Speaker 4: that this is an African book about African people. And 2541 02:21:59,080 --> 02:22:02,560 Speaker 4: so he brings a certain level of freedom, if you will, 2542 02:22:02,879 --> 02:22:06,320 Speaker 4: to his interpretation of scripture. And so I will be 2543 02:22:06,480 --> 02:22:11,080 Speaker 4: doing Quazam next Saturday, the twenty seventh of December, at 2544 02:22:11,200 --> 02:22:14,360 Speaker 4: Union Temple Baptist Church at seven o'cart. I've been doing 2545 02:22:14,440 --> 02:22:20,280 Speaker 4: Quasams at Union Temple ever since December of nineteen eighty six, 2546 02:22:20,600 --> 02:22:23,960 Speaker 4: when I did my first appearance on the Cathay Hughes 2547 02:22:24,040 --> 02:22:28,520 Speaker 4: Morning Show on w WELM. So I'm tethered to Reverend Wilson. 2548 02:22:28,520 --> 02:22:31,000 Speaker 4: We're joined at the help and I support everything this 2549 02:22:31,160 --> 02:22:35,200 Speaker 4: man does because he is a fearless defender of the truth. Now, 2550 02:22:35,280 --> 02:22:39,040 Speaker 4: with regards to Craig's questions, I'm gonna ask for them succinctly. 2551 02:22:39,640 --> 02:22:43,640 Speaker 4: Regarding black folks joining the military. Now, me personally, I 2552 02:22:43,680 --> 02:22:46,400 Speaker 4: wouldn't join the military because my thoughts are a little 2553 02:22:46,400 --> 02:22:49,760 Speaker 4: bit too radical. But I know hundreds of people, even 2554 02:22:49,879 --> 02:22:53,600 Speaker 4: family members of mine, who joined the military, and they 2555 02:22:53,760 --> 02:22:58,880 Speaker 4: gained skills, they gain health insurance, they gain the ability 2556 02:22:59,040 --> 02:23:03,760 Speaker 4: to access loans to go to college, loans to buy 2557 02:23:03,760 --> 02:23:07,000 Speaker 4: a house. So if he joined the military, you used 2558 02:23:07,040 --> 02:23:09,800 Speaker 4: the military, don't allow the military to use you. I 2559 02:23:09,920 --> 02:23:12,160 Speaker 4: remember for the show a couple of weeks ago, someone 2560 02:23:12,240 --> 02:23:16,959 Speaker 4: asked James Marrow that question, and so James James's answered 2561 02:23:17,000 --> 02:23:19,840 Speaker 4: to that question is the same as mine. You used 2562 02:23:19,879 --> 02:23:23,000 Speaker 4: the military, don't allow the military to use you. James 2563 02:23:23,080 --> 02:23:25,879 Speaker 4: talked about how he and other people in the Navy, 2564 02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:28,320 Speaker 4: I believe he was in the Navy, that they were 2565 02:23:28,440 --> 02:23:30,480 Speaker 4: kind of you just objectives. They were in the military, 2566 02:23:30,680 --> 02:23:33,280 Speaker 4: but they refused to go to war. There are things 2567 02:23:33,320 --> 02:23:36,400 Speaker 4: that you can do when you organize. I know plenty 2568 02:23:36,480 --> 02:23:39,200 Speaker 4: of brothers who were in the military who brought me 2569 02:23:39,320 --> 02:23:43,640 Speaker 4: over to Massaa, Japan in nineteen three, nineteen ninety four 2570 02:23:43,840 --> 02:23:46,320 Speaker 4: to do presentations. Brought me over to your coda. I 2571 02:23:46,440 --> 02:23:50,360 Speaker 4: spoken at dozens a military basis because the black folk 2572 02:23:50,400 --> 02:23:53,160 Speaker 4: in the military who understood the value of what I 2573 02:23:53,320 --> 02:23:56,760 Speaker 4: was teaching, and they used my position. They used DEI 2574 02:23:57,360 --> 02:24:00,240 Speaker 4: which was available then to bring people like me out 2575 02:24:00,520 --> 02:24:03,760 Speaker 4: to share historical information. They use my books in the 2576 02:24:03,840 --> 02:24:07,160 Speaker 4: classrooms and the schools in the military. So use the military. 2577 02:24:07,520 --> 02:24:09,800 Speaker 4: Take a page out of the school who set by 2578 02:24:09,840 --> 02:24:13,440 Speaker 4: the door. Use the military. Get training and weapons, get 2579 02:24:13,520 --> 02:24:18,040 Speaker 4: training and strategies, get training and organizing. That the park 2580 02:24:18,320 --> 02:24:21,959 Speaker 4: was in the military, that the card was a sergeant 2581 02:24:22,040 --> 02:24:25,920 Speaker 4: who oversaw supplies, get skills. And then after you leed 2582 02:24:26,000 --> 02:24:27,560 Speaker 4: the military, because you're going to be out of the 2583 02:24:27,600 --> 02:24:30,320 Speaker 4: military long as you've been in the military, applyed those 2584 02:24:30,320 --> 02:24:34,040 Speaker 4: skills in your community, in your life. So to that extent, 2585 02:24:34,440 --> 02:24:38,120 Speaker 4: join please force be like tyrone power. Join the FBI, 2586 02:24:38,640 --> 02:24:43,080 Speaker 4: Join the CIA, Join the NSA, Join all these institutions 2587 02:24:43,160 --> 02:24:47,080 Speaker 4: and organizations, because we need inside men and inside women. 2588 02:24:47,320 --> 02:24:51,120 Speaker 4: Not everybody who's in these institutions is a trader. There 2589 02:24:51,160 --> 02:24:53,920 Speaker 4: are people who gained valuable skills, and I've been the 2590 02:24:54,000 --> 02:24:57,920 Speaker 4: beneficiary of people who shared information with me as a 2591 02:24:57,959 --> 02:25:01,400 Speaker 4: result of having been in those organization and peak behind 2592 02:25:01,480 --> 02:25:05,480 Speaker 4: the curtains. So I would say, use every opportunity available 2593 02:25:05,560 --> 02:25:08,360 Speaker 4: to you to lift yourself up, and if you lift 2594 02:25:08,440 --> 02:25:11,360 Speaker 4: yourself up, lift others around you. With regards to the 2595 02:25:11,360 --> 02:25:14,520 Speaker 4: Book of Enoch, I have not read the Book of Enoch, 2596 02:25:14,800 --> 02:25:18,360 Speaker 4: so I can't speak to that book with any any 2597 02:25:18,440 --> 02:25:21,560 Speaker 4: degree of specificity. But I can tell you that there 2598 02:25:21,600 --> 02:25:25,240 Speaker 4: are many books that never made it in the Christian Bible. 2599 02:25:25,440 --> 02:25:29,360 Speaker 4: There are sixty six books in the current version of 2600 02:25:29,440 --> 02:25:32,039 Speaker 4: the King James version of the Bible, the most read 2601 02:25:32,160 --> 02:25:35,360 Speaker 4: book in history. But there are many books, dozens of 2602 02:25:35,400 --> 02:25:38,040 Speaker 4: books that never made it. Those books are used in 2603 02:25:38,160 --> 02:25:41,360 Speaker 4: other religions, Those books that are available in various forms. 2604 02:25:41,560 --> 02:25:44,000 Speaker 4: Those books are available in libraries today, so you can 2605 02:25:44,080 --> 02:25:48,360 Speaker 4: read that information now. With regards to the Ethiopians, so 2606 02:25:48,800 --> 02:25:51,359 Speaker 4: let me share this about Ethiopia, I've been in Ethiopia 2607 02:25:51,400 --> 02:25:55,360 Speaker 4: three times. I've seen the Christian churches, the stone churches 2608 02:25:55,440 --> 02:25:58,400 Speaker 4: of Lallabella. I've been to oxen and what I can 2609 02:25:58,480 --> 02:26:02,840 Speaker 4: tell you is there, while Ethiopians have a profound understanding 2610 02:26:02,879 --> 02:26:08,200 Speaker 4: of Christianity, a profound understanding of Judaism, there is a 2611 02:26:08,440 --> 02:26:12,520 Speaker 4: distortion in their interpretation. The last time I was in Ethiopia, 2612 02:26:12,640 --> 02:26:16,280 Speaker 4: that was in twenty twenty thirteen, I believe I was 2613 02:26:16,400 --> 02:26:23,760 Speaker 4: there with doctor Jeffries Rosne and Jeffries, doctor Julius Garby 2614 02:26:24,040 --> 02:26:27,039 Speaker 4: and host of Butther Pope. We participated in a conference 2615 02:26:27,040 --> 02:26:30,400 Speaker 4: where I gave a presentation on the African origins of Christianity. 2616 02:26:30,760 --> 02:26:35,520 Speaker 4: And I could tell you we visited these Christian monasteries, 2617 02:26:35,840 --> 02:26:40,000 Speaker 4: and in these Christian monasteries, the Europeans have their hands 2618 02:26:40,200 --> 02:26:44,000 Speaker 4: up in the Ethiopian religion and they have gone they 2619 02:26:44,040 --> 02:26:48,880 Speaker 4: have done away with the images of the black, dark eyed, 2620 02:26:49,520 --> 02:26:53,400 Speaker 4: dark hair, brown skinned Jesus and replaced him with the 2621 02:26:53,520 --> 02:26:57,480 Speaker 4: blond hair, blue eyed Jesus. So there is corruption within 2622 02:26:58,000 --> 02:27:03,000 Speaker 4: the Ethiopian Christian and Orthodox religion. And and and and 2623 02:27:03,240 --> 02:27:07,520 Speaker 4: and there's this whole thing about the the Ethiopians having 2624 02:27:07,640 --> 02:27:10,879 Speaker 4: the Ark of the Covenant. Right uh in Oxenen, there's 2625 02:27:10,879 --> 02:27:13,720 Speaker 4: a church there where they there's a priest who supposedly 2626 02:27:13,760 --> 02:27:15,440 Speaker 4: guards the ark of the Covenant. Well, let me be 2627 02:27:15,560 --> 02:27:19,080 Speaker 4: clear about stating this. The whole concept of the Ark 2628 02:27:19,160 --> 02:27:22,040 Speaker 4: of the Covenant comes out of Kimmin, comes out of 2629 02:27:22,080 --> 02:27:25,560 Speaker 4: the Nile Valley, Cush and Kimmin, And that every temple 2630 02:27:25,920 --> 02:27:29,240 Speaker 4: and Kush and Kimmith had a Holy of holies, and 2631 02:27:29,440 --> 02:27:33,400 Speaker 4: every Holy of Holies had a sacred artifice that was 2632 02:27:33,879 --> 02:27:36,640 Speaker 4: referred to as the Ark of the Covenant. So that's 2633 02:27:36,760 --> 02:27:41,080 Speaker 4: not exclusive to Judaism, that's not exclusive to Ethiopia. So 2634 02:27:41,160 --> 02:27:44,840 Speaker 4: we've got to expand our minds and free ourselves from 2635 02:27:44,920 --> 02:27:49,040 Speaker 4: the prisons that most religions have put on our brains 2636 02:27:49,360 --> 02:27:52,080 Speaker 4: in order to get us to worship a god that 2637 02:27:52,200 --> 02:27:55,280 Speaker 4: they never served us. Right, So we can go on 2638 02:27:55,360 --> 02:27:57,040 Speaker 4: to the next calarcaust. 2639 02:27:58,440 --> 02:28:02,240 Speaker 1: All right, Kareem's calling from Baltimore's on nine three Grand 2640 02:28:02,360 --> 02:28:04,000 Speaker 1: Rising Kareem with Tony Browner. 2641 02:28:05,440 --> 02:28:09,640 Speaker 11: Hey, piece, how y'all doing. I I have a question. 2642 02:28:09,840 --> 02:28:11,920 Speaker 11: I'm a I'm a student of doctor Ian Knows. So 2643 02:28:12,920 --> 02:28:20,720 Speaker 11: just give my background. I doctor Ian doctor. 2644 02:28:20,800 --> 02:28:23,160 Speaker 5: I yes, yes, all right? 2645 02:28:23,240 --> 02:28:28,080 Speaker 11: So and what we I studied with him mistraditional Chinese medicine, 2646 02:28:28,560 --> 02:28:33,320 Speaker 11: which is my understanding, is from Africa. Also the concept 2647 02:28:33,360 --> 02:28:35,039 Speaker 11: of beginning young is from Africa. 2648 02:28:36,200 --> 02:28:36,600 Speaker 4: If we. 2649 02:28:38,560 --> 02:28:44,720 Speaker 12: Study ourselves and the history of the world, it always 2650 02:28:44,879 --> 02:28:47,480 Speaker 12: leads us. I'm finding that it always leads us back 2651 02:28:47,560 --> 02:28:53,240 Speaker 12: to Africa and that concept. Would you suggest that as 2652 02:28:53,360 --> 02:28:58,520 Speaker 12: individuals trying to find self, that it is important or 2653 02:28:58,640 --> 02:29:03,879 Speaker 12: the importance of reading, studying and then finding someone who 2654 02:29:05,240 --> 02:29:09,320 Speaker 12: is somewhat of a master that can guide you, because 2655 02:29:09,320 --> 02:29:12,039 Speaker 12: I think a lot of times we got ourselves thinking 2656 02:29:12,120 --> 02:29:16,959 Speaker 12: that we are on the right path. But in ancient times, 2657 02:29:18,520 --> 02:29:21,240 Speaker 12: the Yellow Emperor learned from a twelve year old black 2658 02:29:21,320 --> 02:29:24,760 Speaker 12: girl named sue Yins. So we all have to have 2659 02:29:25,040 --> 02:29:29,120 Speaker 12: guidance in our understanding. What is the proper way to 2660 02:29:29,240 --> 02:29:31,200 Speaker 12: do that or is that important? 2661 02:29:32,360 --> 02:29:36,840 Speaker 4: Oh no, no, thank you, thank you brother. That's a 2662 02:29:37,080 --> 02:29:41,760 Speaker 4: very important question. And answering that question, I can refer 2663 02:29:42,000 --> 02:29:45,120 Speaker 4: to doctor Rosie who was on the segment before me. 2664 02:29:45,680 --> 02:29:51,279 Speaker 4: She gave very practical advice. Even after your children are grown, 2665 02:29:51,680 --> 02:29:56,240 Speaker 4: they are still your children. Even after your children are married, 2666 02:29:56,480 --> 02:29:58,880 Speaker 4: they're still your children, and you should be up in 2667 02:29:59,000 --> 02:30:03,600 Speaker 4: their business. So this idea of eldership is something that 2668 02:30:03,840 --> 02:30:07,480 Speaker 4: was understood that is better understood in most cultures than 2669 02:30:07,560 --> 02:30:11,120 Speaker 4: it is here in America, because America propagates this false 2670 02:30:11,240 --> 02:30:16,040 Speaker 4: notion of individuality. There are no individuals in any society 2671 02:30:16,160 --> 02:30:19,080 Speaker 4: that is going to thrive. There is this hierarchy that 2672 02:30:19,320 --> 02:30:24,920 Speaker 4: is rooted in eldership, and there is this ingrained respect 2673 02:30:25,400 --> 02:30:30,000 Speaker 4: for elders. Any society that does not respect its elders 2674 02:30:30,280 --> 02:30:33,280 Speaker 4: is a society that's doomed to fail. And so the 2675 02:30:33,400 --> 02:30:37,760 Speaker 4: elders have lived experience. Every young person should sit at 2676 02:30:37,800 --> 02:30:41,120 Speaker 4: the foot of an elder and allow them to pour 2677 02:30:41,360 --> 02:30:44,200 Speaker 4: their knowledge into you. Why because you will be an 2678 02:30:44,240 --> 02:30:47,120 Speaker 4: elder sometimes and you will have an obligation and the 2679 02:30:47,160 --> 02:30:50,960 Speaker 4: responsibility to do the same to another young person. So 2680 02:30:51,440 --> 02:30:57,240 Speaker 4: what I would encourage Koreans and listeners to do is 2681 02:30:57,360 --> 02:31:00,959 Speaker 4: I see too many people, too many young people who 2682 02:31:01,440 --> 02:31:06,320 Speaker 4: see themselves as their own leader. And that's a fatal 2683 02:31:06,480 --> 02:31:10,920 Speaker 4: flaw because just as they say, a person who represents 2684 02:31:10,959 --> 02:31:14,520 Speaker 4: themselves as their attorney in the court of law has 2685 02:31:14,560 --> 02:31:21,200 Speaker 4: a fool for an attorney. Everybody can benefit from studying 2686 02:31:21,440 --> 02:31:25,200 Speaker 4: under someone who knows more than they They can guide 2687 02:31:25,280 --> 02:31:27,160 Speaker 4: you and they can bring you along the pass. So 2688 02:31:27,280 --> 02:31:29,640 Speaker 4: to that end, and our clothes in this statement and 2689 02:31:29,760 --> 02:31:33,279 Speaker 4: as commit Georgie and James talked about the ten virtues 2690 02:31:34,120 --> 02:31:39,119 Speaker 4: the prerequisites for human development. In identifying the ten virtues 2691 02:31:39,600 --> 02:31:43,640 Speaker 4: of the latter virtues, talk about confidence in the ability 2692 02:31:44,080 --> 02:31:48,320 Speaker 4: of a master teacher to IMpower information to you, confidence 2693 02:31:48,720 --> 02:31:52,760 Speaker 4: your capacity to learn from the master teacher. And then 2694 02:31:52,840 --> 02:31:56,080 Speaker 4: the tenth virtue, you going out into the world to 2695 02:31:56,240 --> 02:31:59,080 Speaker 4: apply what you've been taught. And the other important thing 2696 02:31:59,240 --> 02:32:03,600 Speaker 4: in our clothes is that in the Now Valley educational system, 2697 02:32:04,160 --> 02:32:08,280 Speaker 4: one hit to study under elitis for forty two years 2698 02:32:08,720 --> 02:32:12,520 Speaker 4: before you were even allowed to open your mouth. Forty 2699 02:32:12,560 --> 02:32:18,440 Speaker 4: two years. Just think about that for a minute. All right, 2700 02:32:18,760 --> 02:32:21,000 Speaker 4: Thanks Green, all right, thank you, appreciate you. 2701 02:32:21,560 --> 02:32:23,600 Speaker 1: Twelve out of the top. Brother Gregor is checking in 2702 02:32:23,680 --> 02:32:26,800 Speaker 1: from Charlotte Ashahn Line two. Grand Rising Brother Gregor, You're 2703 02:32:26,800 --> 02:32:27,680 Speaker 1: on with Tony Browner. 2704 02:32:28,800 --> 02:32:33,160 Speaker 13: Yes, Grand rising Brother Paul and grand Rising Brother Tony Browner. 2705 02:32:33,920 --> 02:32:35,520 Speaker 13: First of all, I just want to say thanks to 2706 02:32:35,640 --> 02:32:40,040 Speaker 13: you for your research and for your publications, your books 2707 02:32:40,640 --> 02:32:45,440 Speaker 13: from the Browder Files and especially Now Valley Civilizations. I 2708 02:32:45,560 --> 02:32:47,920 Speaker 13: was in graduate school when I first saw the book, 2709 02:32:48,640 --> 02:32:50,200 Speaker 13: and all I could say when I saw the cover 2710 02:32:50,400 --> 02:32:52,680 Speaker 13: was wild that a brother had put something like that 2711 02:32:52,800 --> 02:32:55,599 Speaker 13: together for his people. So thank you for those publications. 2712 02:32:56,040 --> 02:33:00,320 Speaker 13: Dr Browner, Yes, sir. The reason I called when I 2713 02:33:00,400 --> 02:33:04,360 Speaker 13: do bring up the issue of birthright citizenship, I sometimes 2714 02:33:04,680 --> 02:33:08,000 Speaker 13: mentioned that you and brother mentioned the idea of a 2715 02:33:08,120 --> 02:33:12,200 Speaker 13: cataclysmic event that it could affect black people sometime in 2716 02:33:12,280 --> 02:33:16,080 Speaker 13: the future. And when I looked at the research, I 2717 02:33:16,160 --> 02:33:20,960 Speaker 13: saw that the US Supreme Court in October they announced 2718 02:33:20,959 --> 02:33:24,840 Speaker 13: they're reviewing the Voting Rights Act, and they also in 2719 02:33:25,080 --> 02:33:30,160 Speaker 13: December this month they announced that they're reviewing birthright citizenship. 2720 02:33:31,000 --> 02:33:34,200 Speaker 13: And in the military, that's my background, we have an 2721 02:33:34,200 --> 02:33:38,920 Speaker 13: old time saying hope for the best, but prepare for 2722 02:33:39,040 --> 02:33:42,920 Speaker 13: the worst. And when I was looking at the facts 2723 02:33:42,920 --> 02:33:47,040 Speaker 13: about the Supreme Court, it is possible Dr Browner, that 2724 02:33:47,240 --> 02:33:51,760 Speaker 13: in July of twenty twenty six, the black community and 2725 02:33:51,879 --> 02:33:55,880 Speaker 13: the civil rights community, we could receive something like a 2726 02:33:56,040 --> 02:34:01,000 Speaker 13: Mike Kyson one two punts, a nullification of the Voting 2727 02:34:01,120 --> 02:34:05,280 Speaker 13: Rights Act and at the same time, a notification of 2728 02:34:05,440 --> 02:34:09,280 Speaker 13: birthrights citizenship on the same day, in the summer of 2729 02:34:09,400 --> 02:34:12,560 Speaker 13: twenty twenty six from the US to Prime Court. So 2730 02:34:12,600 --> 02:34:14,680 Speaker 13: I wanted to ask you, do you see that as 2731 02:34:14,720 --> 02:34:19,720 Speaker 13: a possible cataclysmic event for the black community losing both 2732 02:34:19,800 --> 02:34:22,640 Speaker 13: of those foundational rights that we we had for over 2733 02:34:22,680 --> 02:34:25,440 Speaker 13: one hundred and fifty years, and what do you see 2734 02:34:26,160 --> 02:34:29,360 Speaker 13: we could do in the future, from say New Year's 2735 02:34:29,440 --> 02:34:33,039 Speaker 13: Day twenty twenty six to July first, twenty twenty six, 2736 02:34:33,720 --> 02:34:37,040 Speaker 13: to prepare for the possibility that these could be the 2737 02:34:37,120 --> 02:34:38,800 Speaker 13: rulings from the USU Prime Court. 2738 02:34:40,840 --> 02:34:45,000 Speaker 4: Well, thank you, brother Gregory for your insights and that 2739 02:34:45,240 --> 02:34:49,280 Speaker 4: very proving question. Let's let us be clear that from 2740 02:34:49,320 --> 02:34:52,520 Speaker 4: the very founding of this nation two hundred and fifty 2741 02:34:52,560 --> 02:34:59,600 Speaker 4: years ago, the pedophiles George Washington, the pedophiles Thomas Jefferson, 2742 02:35:00,120 --> 02:35:04,480 Speaker 4: pedophile James Madison, all of these white men who are 2743 02:35:04,520 --> 02:35:09,480 Speaker 4: the constitutional fathers of this country in slaves African people 2744 02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:15,720 Speaker 4: and had sexual relationships with their female men, women, boys 2745 02:35:15,920 --> 02:35:19,680 Speaker 4: and girls. That's real, that's documented. So I don't hold 2746 02:35:19,720 --> 02:35:22,160 Speaker 4: these people high up on the pedestal. I see the 2747 02:35:22,240 --> 02:35:26,440 Speaker 4: Constitution as an incredible document for a flawed document, and 2748 02:35:26,520 --> 02:35:30,240 Speaker 4: so these amendments to the Constitution were written in order 2749 02:35:30,320 --> 02:35:32,880 Speaker 4: to correct some of the flaws. But we also need 2750 02:35:32,959 --> 02:35:36,920 Speaker 4: to understand that there have always been forcing, demonic forces 2751 02:35:37,120 --> 02:35:41,119 Speaker 4: at work in this government. We got to be honest 2752 02:35:41,200 --> 02:35:46,320 Speaker 4: with ourselves and that this country was established not as 2753 02:35:46,360 --> 02:35:52,080 Speaker 4: a democracy but as a slave oocracy, a corptocracy, it 2754 02:35:52,200 --> 02:35:56,040 Speaker 4: was a corporations, it was businesses. When this country was established, 2755 02:35:56,280 --> 02:36:00,560 Speaker 4: only wealthy white men over the age of twenty one, 2756 02:36:00,760 --> 02:36:04,680 Speaker 4: who were landowners, they were the only ones allowed to 2757 02:36:04,840 --> 02:36:08,680 Speaker 4: participate in this government. So we've been had, we been hood, 2758 02:36:08,720 --> 02:36:12,520 Speaker 4: we we've been bambuzom. And now, if nothing else, the 2759 02:36:12,640 --> 02:36:16,200 Speaker 4: last twelve months have demonstrated to us very clearly as 2760 02:36:16,280 --> 02:36:20,879 Speaker 4: to how this government has always functioned. Big business people 2761 02:36:21,280 --> 02:36:25,279 Speaker 4: have always bought the politicians who have written the laws 2762 02:36:25,680 --> 02:36:30,320 Speaker 4: that preferred them big businesses. So we're seeing that like 2763 02:36:30,480 --> 02:36:33,120 Speaker 4: never before. We need to accept that reality. So the 2764 02:36:33,240 --> 02:36:38,959 Speaker 4: Supreme Court works for politicians, and politicians work for big government. 2765 02:36:39,200 --> 02:36:45,160 Speaker 4: So we've been seeing corporations acknowledged as individuals. We've been 2766 02:36:45,200 --> 02:36:48,520 Speaker 4: seeing the chipping away of human rights. So it's not 2767 02:36:48,680 --> 02:36:51,880 Speaker 4: just black folk who are in trouble. Everybody in this 2768 02:36:52,000 --> 02:36:55,920 Speaker 4: country is in trouble. And it could happen in June 2769 02:36:56,120 --> 02:36:58,879 Speaker 4: July of next year, as you stated, it could happen 2770 02:36:58,920 --> 02:37:01,480 Speaker 4: at the end of this year. It happened you ask 2771 02:37:01,520 --> 02:37:07,080 Speaker 4: the Nates. But what's inevitable is that this country is declining. 2772 02:37:07,480 --> 02:37:11,879 Speaker 4: It's rapidly declining. And so I don't know when it's 2773 02:37:11,959 --> 02:37:15,960 Speaker 4: going to hit rock bottom, but it's clear we're witnessing 2774 02:37:16,040 --> 02:37:21,360 Speaker 4: right now the disintegration maga. We're seeing the rats jumping, 2775 02:37:21,480 --> 02:37:25,760 Speaker 4: the shipping, the sinking ship. Martinie Taylor Green is going. 2776 02:37:26,200 --> 02:37:30,480 Speaker 4: Other Republicans now have finally gotten a spy and stinking 2777 02:37:30,560 --> 02:37:33,440 Speaker 4: out against all of the corrupt things that are happening 2778 02:37:33,760 --> 02:37:35,120 Speaker 4: by this current administration. 2779 02:37:36,800 --> 02:37:39,200 Speaker 1: Right there, Tony, I'll let you expounded that when we 2780 02:37:39,320 --> 02:37:41,240 Speaker 1: come back, and they also tell us too. For the 2781 02:37:41,280 --> 02:37:43,440 Speaker 1: folks that didn't hear when you first made that announcement, 2782 02:37:43,800 --> 02:37:46,800 Speaker 1: a cataclyst making that bring us all together, explain why 2783 02:37:46,840 --> 02:37:49,640 Speaker 1: you said that and explain what all that means. Family, 2784 02:37:49,720 --> 02:37:52,360 Speaker 1: You two can get in on this conversation with Tony Browner. 2785 02:37:52,480 --> 02:37:54,960 Speaker 1: Reach out to us at eight hundred four five zero 2786 02:37:55,400 --> 02:37:57,760 Speaker 1: seventy eight seventy six and we'll take your phone calls 2787 02:37:58,000 --> 02:38:00,520 Speaker 1: next time. Grind rising family, and thankious ticking with us 2788 02:38:00,560 --> 02:38:02,800 Speaker 1: on this Thursday morning. And I guess this chematologist brother 2789 02:38:02,879 --> 02:38:04,440 Speaker 1: Tony brown it's got a new book out. We're going 2790 02:38:04,480 --> 02:38:06,640 Speaker 1: to talk about his book as well. Before we left, 2791 02:38:07,400 --> 02:38:10,760 Speaker 1: Gregory Brother, Gregory and Charlotte, I said that I wanted 2792 02:38:10,879 --> 02:38:14,160 Speaker 1: some explanation about what he thinks would be this clatachismic 2793 02:38:14,280 --> 02:38:16,720 Speaker 1: event that will bring black people together. I mean, just 2794 02:38:17,200 --> 02:38:19,440 Speaker 1: like before I let Tony respond, just we just found 2795 02:38:19,440 --> 02:38:22,720 Speaker 1: out yesterday the black unemployment rates is swored to eight 2796 02:38:22,840 --> 02:38:25,840 Speaker 1: point three percent last month, and that's the highest level 2797 02:38:25,879 --> 02:38:29,440 Speaker 1: since the pandemic of four years ago. And so is 2798 02:38:30,040 --> 02:38:32,520 Speaker 1: could that be or could be what brother Gregory talked about? 2799 02:38:32,600 --> 02:38:33,119 Speaker 1: Brother Tony? 2800 02:38:34,480 --> 02:38:38,400 Speaker 4: Sure, so, car you asked me to comment on the 2801 02:38:38,480 --> 02:38:41,440 Speaker 4: statements that I've made in previous appearances on the show 2802 02:38:41,720 --> 02:38:44,760 Speaker 4: about a catechorism, and what we know this is basic 2803 02:38:44,879 --> 02:38:49,440 Speaker 4: human nature. It takes a catastrophe to force people to 2804 02:38:49,520 --> 02:38:51,760 Speaker 4: come together and do the things that they should have 2805 02:38:51,800 --> 02:38:55,279 Speaker 4: been doing a long time ago, whether that catastrophe is Katrina, 2806 02:38:55,760 --> 02:39:00,640 Speaker 4: or is an earthquake in Haiti or to make or 2807 02:39:00,760 --> 02:39:03,040 Speaker 4: any other part of the world. So it takes a 2808 02:39:03,280 --> 02:39:07,480 Speaker 4: tragedy for people to stop being selfish and to begin 2809 02:39:07,680 --> 02:39:10,600 Speaker 4: to come together for their own collective interests. The fires 2810 02:39:10,920 --> 02:39:17,080 Speaker 4: in California in La last last January are catastrophes. So 2811 02:39:17,280 --> 02:39:19,920 Speaker 4: what I wanted your listeners to look at is don't 2812 02:39:20,040 --> 02:39:24,840 Speaker 4: just look at one catastrophe. Life is a series of catastrophes. 2813 02:39:25,240 --> 02:39:28,680 Speaker 4: Right life is a series of catastrophes. My offer was 2814 02:39:28,720 --> 02:39:32,760 Speaker 4: a catastrophe. Jim Crow was a catastrophe. The end of 2815 02:39:32,879 --> 02:39:36,879 Speaker 4: Dea is a catastrophe. The burden in conference with Europeans 2816 02:39:36,920 --> 02:39:40,720 Speaker 4: deciding to carver up Africa and colonize Africa was a catastrophe. 2817 02:39:40,840 --> 02:39:44,480 Speaker 4: We've always dealt with catastrophes. The key is how do 2818 02:39:44,560 --> 02:39:47,360 Speaker 4: we dig our way out. That's the important thing. You 2819 02:39:47,440 --> 02:39:50,000 Speaker 4: don't wait to get in trouble to start figuring out 2820 02:39:50,000 --> 02:39:52,760 Speaker 4: what you should be doing. Now the time to begin 2821 02:39:53,240 --> 02:39:57,720 Speaker 4: to start planning right, So you don't wait until you're 2822 02:39:57,800 --> 02:40:02,000 Speaker 4: ill to start focusing on getting better. A smart person 2823 02:40:02,120 --> 02:40:05,320 Speaker 4: find ways to take steps to prevent from getting illness. 2824 02:40:05,560 --> 02:40:08,920 Speaker 4: And so it's important that we understand me. Let me 2825 02:40:09,000 --> 02:40:10,680 Speaker 4: just share this with the car because it helps to 2826 02:40:11,560 --> 02:40:15,800 Speaker 4: put things into context. John Jackson one of my favorite scholars, 2827 02:40:16,160 --> 02:40:18,160 Speaker 4: one of my favorite scholars of all time, because he 2828 02:40:18,280 --> 02:40:20,240 Speaker 4: was so real, He was so down, He was so 2829 02:40:20,680 --> 02:40:24,360 Speaker 4: plain and basic. John Jackson said the masters are asses. 2830 02:40:24,959 --> 02:40:26,400 Speaker 4: In other words, what he was saying is that the 2831 02:40:26,560 --> 02:40:30,560 Speaker 4: majority of people are stupid. Why not because people are 2832 02:40:30,680 --> 02:40:35,720 Speaker 4: naturally stupid, They've been socialized they've been miseducated to be dysfunctional. 2833 02:40:35,959 --> 02:40:38,520 Speaker 4: And so the more dysfunctional you are, the more you 2834 02:40:38,600 --> 02:40:45,040 Speaker 4: can be exploited by big business and politicians and ministers. 2835 02:40:45,120 --> 02:40:47,360 Speaker 4: Let's be let's be real, let's just talk truth. And 2836 02:40:47,480 --> 02:40:52,480 Speaker 4: so there's always been people who have separated themselves from 2837 02:40:52,520 --> 02:40:57,400 Speaker 4: the masters, who've studied, who've traveled, who have been viewed 2838 02:40:57,440 --> 02:41:00,760 Speaker 4: as outsiders, but they were the ones who preserves the 2839 02:41:00,879 --> 02:41:04,359 Speaker 4: information that was going to be used to jumpstart civilization 2840 02:41:04,440 --> 02:41:08,000 Speaker 4: when it falls. So every time there's a catastrophe, there's 2841 02:41:08,120 --> 02:41:12,000 Speaker 4: always people who helped jump start things again and things 2842 02:41:12,160 --> 02:41:15,680 Speaker 4: come back better. So Black people, African people have gone 2843 02:41:15,720 --> 02:41:18,720 Speaker 4: through more catastaphes than anybody else. So we know how 2844 02:41:18,800 --> 02:41:21,520 Speaker 4: to survive, we know how to come back. Gets in 2845 02:41:21,720 --> 02:41:23,760 Speaker 4: us and so what we need to begin to do 2846 02:41:24,280 --> 02:41:26,920 Speaker 4: is to prepare ourselves for the catastrophes in a coming 2847 02:41:27,200 --> 02:41:30,880 Speaker 4: where there's the events that Gregory was talking about in 2848 02:41:31,360 --> 02:41:35,080 Speaker 4: in July of next year, or something else that we 2849 02:41:35,200 --> 02:41:38,920 Speaker 4: don't know of that's handled our way. Be prepared. That's 2850 02:41:38,920 --> 02:41:41,120 Speaker 4: the old boy scout battle. Be prepared. And let me 2851 02:41:41,200 --> 02:41:43,480 Speaker 4: just share a couple of things with you and your 2852 02:41:43,520 --> 02:41:45,920 Speaker 4: listener's car before we move forward to the next caller. 2853 02:41:46,480 --> 02:41:52,880 Speaker 4: The House of Representative just pass bill HR fifty HR 2854 02:41:53,000 --> 02:41:56,240 Speaker 4: fifty one. There's a law that the white members of 2855 02:41:56,400 --> 02:41:59,840 Speaker 4: Congress have passed in the District of Columbia to lower 2856 02:41:59,920 --> 02:42:03,400 Speaker 4: the age that a child could be charged as an 2857 02:42:03,440 --> 02:42:06,959 Speaker 4: adult for a crime. That age has been lowered from 2858 02:42:07,040 --> 02:42:10,280 Speaker 4: sixteen to fourteen. Now, who is that gonna impact. That's 2859 02:42:10,280 --> 02:42:14,200 Speaker 4: gonna impact young black boys primarily, and what does that mean. 2860 02:42:14,440 --> 02:42:17,040 Speaker 4: It means the white folks have already taken over Chocolate City. 2861 02:42:17,040 --> 02:42:19,960 Speaker 4: It ain't Chocolate City no more is late Land. And 2862 02:42:20,120 --> 02:42:23,960 Speaker 4: since the mayor Mario Bauser has announced that she's not 2863 02:42:24,080 --> 02:42:27,760 Speaker 4: gonna run for re election for a fourth term, the 2864 02:42:27,959 --> 02:42:31,720 Speaker 4: stage is set. And listen to me very carefully, particularly 2865 02:42:31,840 --> 02:42:37,360 Speaker 4: you Native Washingtonians. The stage is set for DC to 2866 02:42:37,480 --> 02:42:41,680 Speaker 4: have his first white mayor. What I'm afraid could happen 2867 02:42:42,400 --> 02:42:47,720 Speaker 4: is that black politicians on the city Council are gonna 2868 02:42:47,760 --> 02:42:50,640 Speaker 4: also their hat in the ring, and they're gonna divide 2869 02:42:50,720 --> 02:42:53,480 Speaker 4: the black vote and the white person is gonna come 2870 02:42:53,560 --> 02:42:56,880 Speaker 4: in and win the majority share of the votes and 2871 02:42:57,000 --> 02:43:01,360 Speaker 4: become the next mayor of DC. That's a strong possibility 2872 02:43:01,640 --> 02:43:03,840 Speaker 4: that it will happen the next year's election, and if 2873 02:43:03,879 --> 02:43:07,360 Speaker 4: it does, you'll see another catastrophe in the making, because 2874 02:43:07,800 --> 02:43:11,720 Speaker 4: I've been saying this for years, but I see it coming. 2875 02:43:12,120 --> 02:43:16,280 Speaker 4: When DC gets a white mayor, then it won't be 2876 02:43:16,400 --> 02:43:21,279 Speaker 4: long before DC gets Stagshood and DC will get statehood. 2877 02:43:21,440 --> 02:43:23,720 Speaker 4: And if you look at where things are going politically 2878 02:43:24,280 --> 02:43:27,200 Speaker 4: d C. The Republicans are running d C right now. 2879 02:43:27,560 --> 02:43:30,600 Speaker 4: They're running this town like gangsters, like al Capone ran 2880 02:43:30,640 --> 02:43:33,680 Speaker 4: in Chicago. And so I would not be surprised if 2881 02:43:33,680 --> 02:43:37,080 Speaker 4: they're going to throw dark money into this upcoming president 2882 02:43:37,160 --> 02:43:40,360 Speaker 4: to race and get a white candidate, sow money behind 2883 02:43:40,400 --> 02:43:43,000 Speaker 4: them so that they become the mayor, and they slip 2884 02:43:43,280 --> 02:43:46,240 Speaker 4: and become a Republican and d C then will become 2885 02:43:46,280 --> 02:43:49,280 Speaker 4: a Republican land city and DC will get stays heod. 2886 02:43:49,400 --> 02:43:52,160 Speaker 4: There's a reality, there's a very strong reality that that 2887 02:43:52,440 --> 02:43:56,520 Speaker 4: could happen. And consider this Bury Bowser trying to appease 2888 02:43:57,320 --> 02:44:01,920 Speaker 4: the current president of the United States eracing over Black 2889 02:44:02,040 --> 02:44:05,920 Speaker 4: Lives Matter Plaza, see race over that street. And now 2890 02:44:06,040 --> 02:44:11,440 Speaker 4: there's talk in DC of white folk renaming what used 2891 02:44:11,440 --> 02:44:15,279 Speaker 4: to be Black Lives Matter Plaza. To Charlie Kirk plaza. 2892 02:44:15,800 --> 02:44:20,760 Speaker 4: All right, Charlie kirk Plaza, this racist white Christian Let's 2893 02:44:20,840 --> 02:44:24,800 Speaker 4: be clear. He used Christianity as a means to gavanize 2894 02:44:24,920 --> 02:44:28,640 Speaker 4: white people and their hatred for black folk and immigrants. 2895 02:44:28,840 --> 02:44:31,760 Speaker 4: So we gotta be real. This is a catastrophe. And 2896 02:44:31,800 --> 02:44:34,480 Speaker 4: if we don't understand how religion has been used as 2897 02:44:34,520 --> 02:44:39,360 Speaker 4: a means to divide people, we'll be bamboozed again. All Right, 2898 02:44:39,480 --> 02:44:41,800 Speaker 4: we can go to the next Cali, carl all right. 2899 02:44:41,920 --> 02:44:43,920 Speaker 1: Twenty eight. At the top of that next call is 2900 02:44:44,000 --> 02:44:47,400 Speaker 1: Panther calling from Washington, DC's online to Grand Rising.

We got the gist, got it, 2929 02:46:28,879 --> 02:46:29,560 Speaker 1: I got it, I got it. 2930 02:46:29,840 --> 02:46:31,360 Speaker 4: I gotta stay in the car, you can, you can 2931 02:46:31,400 --> 02:46:35,959 Speaker 4: kind of loose man. The bottom line question, how we're 2932 02:46:35,959 --> 02:46:38,520 Speaker 4: gonna come together to save ourselves? I got it, I 2933 02:46:38,600 --> 02:46:42,720 Speaker 4: got it. That's the kids. We're not gonna come together, 2934 02:46:43,200 --> 02:46:46,680 Speaker 4: all right. When we are not gonna come together, we 2935 02:46:46,879 --> 02:46:50,120 Speaker 4: have to come We have to first together within ourselves. 2936 02:46:50,600 --> 02:46:53,240 Speaker 4: So My question you've paid is what are you doing 2937 02:46:53,560 --> 02:46:55,920 Speaker 4: to make your life better? What are you doing to 2938 02:46:56,000 --> 02:46:58,480 Speaker 4: make your community better? What are you doing to make 2939 02:46:58,560 --> 02:47:02,440 Speaker 4: your family stronger? That's where it starts. And so when 2940 02:47:02,480 --> 02:47:04,920 Speaker 4: you have to model that for everybody in your household 2941 02:47:05,080 --> 02:47:09,400 Speaker 4: and everybody in your community. So until every individual does that, 2942 02:47:09,720 --> 02:47:12,520 Speaker 4: there is no weed, there is no coming together. So 2943 02:47:12,879 --> 02:47:16,120 Speaker 4: the oldest has always been on us. The solutions to 2944 02:47:16,280 --> 02:47:20,040 Speaker 4: all of our problems have always been within us. So 2945 02:47:20,200 --> 02:47:23,400 Speaker 4: people need to stop talking, People need to stop preaching, 2946 02:47:23,640 --> 02:47:27,360 Speaker 4: people need to start doing doing. That's the only thing 2947 02:47:27,480 --> 02:47:31,400 Speaker 4: that matters. That's the only thing that counts. Stop complaining. 2948 02:47:32,800 --> 02:47:37,680 Speaker 4: I'm not but I'm just listen to me, brother, listen 2949 02:47:37,760 --> 02:47:40,879 Speaker 4: to me, all right, because I'm not talking about you specifically. 2950 02:47:41,120 --> 02:47:43,520 Speaker 4: I'm just putting some thoughts out here. So what I 2951 02:47:43,520 --> 02:47:45,320 Speaker 4: would love for you to do. What I would love 2952 02:47:45,400 --> 02:47:48,080 Speaker 4: to hear you say the next time you call in 2953 02:47:48,240 --> 02:47:51,720 Speaker 4: on the show, this is what I'm doing. These are 2954 02:47:51,760 --> 02:47:54,720 Speaker 4: your folk in my community who I'm working with to 2955 02:47:54,879 --> 02:47:58,720 Speaker 4: help secure my community. Were getting rid of the drug boys. 2956 02:47:58,959 --> 02:48:02,160 Speaker 4: We're making our community safe so our children can play outside. 2957 02:48:02,320 --> 02:48:04,160 Speaker 4: That's what I want to hear you say, because that's 2958 02:48:04,160 --> 02:48:06,440 Speaker 4: where it starts. I want to see you model that. 2959 02:48:06,840 --> 02:48:09,160 Speaker 4: I want to see you demonstrate that for other people 2960 02:48:09,200 --> 02:48:12,040 Speaker 4: who are looking to you for an example. That's where 2961 02:48:12,040 --> 02:48:14,879 Speaker 4: it begins, all right. So we don't have to wait 2962 02:48:14,959 --> 02:48:16,120 Speaker 4: for somebody to save us. 2963 02:48:16,400 --> 02:48:17,320 Speaker 1: We have to save. 2964 02:48:17,200 --> 02:48:22,080 Speaker 4: Ourselves, and we begin it by making a declaration of independence, 2965 02:48:22,120 --> 02:48:25,600 Speaker 4: to free ourselves and modeling that for every black lives 2966 02:48:25,640 --> 02:48:28,880 Speaker 4: that matters to us. That's how it starts. Brother, to 2967 02:48:29,000 --> 02:48:32,600 Speaker 4: start where you are and build out from there. Thanks man, Dad, 2968 02:48:32,760 --> 02:48:33,760 Speaker 4: I'm asking you to do that. 2969 02:48:35,040 --> 02:48:36,520 Speaker 1: Twenty get away from the top of YEA.

Have a question, a 2976 02:49:02,040 --> 02:49:06,120 Speaker 6: historical question. I'm an errodact compared to Europe about but 2977 02:49:07,520 --> 02:49:10,720 Speaker 6: I want you to critique the validity of this statement 2978 02:49:11,520 --> 02:49:16,720 Speaker 6: that South Africa the Zulu were among the last to 2979 02:49:16,879 --> 02:49:21,840 Speaker 6: be colonized by outside forces on the County of Africa 2980 02:49:22,520 --> 02:49:28,520 Speaker 6: and the Ethiopia, which was an empire of various extents 2981 02:49:28,720 --> 02:49:33,520 Speaker 6: at different times, was once colonized in Lower Egypt by 2982 02:49:36,360 --> 02:49:40,240 Speaker 6: Arab Muslim. If you could critique that statement for me 2983 02:49:40,280 --> 02:49:43,240 Speaker 6: and my brother, I would appreciate it. And I'll hang 2984 02:49:43,320 --> 02:49:45,040 Speaker 6: up and miss Sante Son. 2985 02:49:45,200 --> 02:49:51,600 Speaker 4: Okay, sure I didn't fully grasp your question, but if 2986 02:49:51,640 --> 02:49:53,920 Speaker 4: I can do the best I can to answer base 2987 02:49:54,000 --> 02:49:56,480 Speaker 4: on what I I think I heard. Well, what I 2988 02:49:56,480 --> 02:49:59,840 Speaker 4: can say this about Ethiopia, it's the northern part of Ethiopia, 2989 02:50:00,720 --> 02:50:04,320 Speaker 4: where the Muslims are. In the southern part of Ethiopia 2990 02:50:04,879 --> 02:50:07,280 Speaker 4: is where you have what I refer to as the 2991 02:50:07,440 --> 02:50:13,080 Speaker 4: root culture, where you have the people who were essentially 2992 02:50:13,160 --> 02:50:17,720 Speaker 4: responsible for developing what later became the essence of non 2993 02:50:17,800 --> 02:50:22,360 Speaker 4: valley civilization. Within southern Ethiopia, you have the people who 2994 02:50:22,480 --> 02:50:26,360 Speaker 4: have a festival it's called the Richie Festival, in which 2995 02:50:26,440 --> 02:50:31,520 Speaker 4: they literally commemorate what we refer to him as is 2996 02:50:31,680 --> 02:50:34,720 Speaker 4: sorry and drama and that story. And I got this 2997 02:50:34,800 --> 02:50:38,760 Speaker 4: from Holly Grima and Ethiopia himself, filmmaker used to teach 2998 02:50:38,760 --> 02:50:42,640 Speaker 4: at Howard University, was thank over a bookstoring video. The 2999 02:50:43,280 --> 02:50:47,320 Speaker 4: Richie Festival acknowledges the story the fame of the myth 3000 02:50:47,600 --> 02:50:49,720 Speaker 4: of a sorry as set and that story comes out 3001 02:50:49,800 --> 02:50:52,640 Speaker 4: of Ethiopia, and it's over ten thousand years old. And 3002 02:50:52,760 --> 02:50:57,360 Speaker 4: so the point that I think you were making is 3003 02:50:57,600 --> 02:51:03,680 Speaker 4: that we have within African culture, ancient African culture, all 3004 02:51:03,800 --> 02:51:08,439 Speaker 4: the tools we need to liberate us. We have God concepts, 3005 02:51:08,920 --> 02:51:13,560 Speaker 4: we have family values and traditions that are thousands of 3006 02:51:13,720 --> 02:51:17,760 Speaker 4: years old and are just waiting now to be rediscovered 3007 02:51:18,040 --> 02:51:21,400 Speaker 4: and applied in our lives. So what I would ask 3008 02:51:21,959 --> 02:51:24,360 Speaker 4: those sisters and brothers who are interested in making a 3009 02:51:24,480 --> 02:51:30,080 Speaker 4: meaningful contribution to our society, study those cultures. I am 3010 02:51:30,160 --> 02:51:32,880 Speaker 4: an aspect of that culture that you can relate to, 3011 02:51:33,040 --> 02:51:36,800 Speaker 4: that you can articulate, and then share that knowledge with 3012 02:51:37,000 --> 02:51:41,120 Speaker 4: black folk in your community, to educate, to enlighten, to 3013 02:51:41,240 --> 02:51:45,360 Speaker 4: empower young sisters and brothers in your community, and then 3014 02:51:45,480 --> 02:51:49,039 Speaker 4: spread that outward. That's how we do this thing. That's 3015 02:51:49,120 --> 02:51:54,920 Speaker 4: how we ensure our continued existence regards as to any 3016 02:51:55,480 --> 02:51:59,520 Speaker 4: our catasrophe that may be awaiting us. And the other 3017 02:51:59,600 --> 02:52:05,480 Speaker 4: thing is, again I'm glad that the statement that Miss 3018 02:52:05,560 --> 02:52:09,640 Speaker 4: Hugh's aired again in the last break, Miss Hughes says 3019 02:52:09,959 --> 02:52:15,120 Speaker 4: the change is inevitable, but how you handle change determines 3020 02:52:15,400 --> 02:52:19,080 Speaker 4: your future. So now is the time to begin to 3021 02:52:19,200 --> 02:52:23,560 Speaker 4: prepare yourself for the inevitable changes that are coming. And 3022 02:52:23,720 --> 02:52:28,600 Speaker 4: by doing so, preparing yourself properly, you can prepare yourself 3023 02:52:28,640 --> 02:52:32,040 Speaker 4: for all of the futures that are to come. The 3024 02:52:32,160 --> 02:52:38,000 Speaker 4: future is indefinite. The future is always coming. It's always coming, 3025 02:52:38,280 --> 02:52:40,960 Speaker 4: and so we're going to be a part. Aspects of 3026 02:52:41,080 --> 02:52:44,520 Speaker 4: ourselves would be a part of every future. So what 3027 02:52:44,760 --> 02:52:49,800 Speaker 4: aspect of yourself do you want to benefit from the 3028 02:52:49,959 --> 02:52:52,240 Speaker 4: futures that you have set in motion right now? So 3029 02:52:52,440 --> 02:52:55,800 Speaker 4: what you do today, what you do now, determines the 3030 02:52:55,959 --> 02:52:59,360 Speaker 4: rest of your lives. And that's you know. That would 3031 02:52:59,360 --> 02:53:01,600 Speaker 4: be if I had a Christmas gifts to give to 3032 02:53:01,640 --> 02:53:04,600 Speaker 4: your listener's call, it will be that, don't spend your 3033 02:53:04,680 --> 02:53:09,240 Speaker 4: money next week buying gifts, making corporations even richer and 3034 02:53:09,360 --> 02:53:12,880 Speaker 4: you going into debt the following year.

Cliff your question for Tony. 3088 02:55:55,560 --> 02:55:58,920 Speaker 15: Browner, Gwen Rising, Kings and queens. From the sound of 3089 02:55:58,920 --> 02:56:01,760 Speaker 15: my voice, I was just started to ask what is 3090 02:56:01,840 --> 02:56:06,280 Speaker 15: the meaning of uh anti Semitic? And ke invite me 3091 02:56:06,400 --> 02:56:08,840 Speaker 15: on what does that mean? And how can they say 3092 02:56:08,879 --> 02:56:11,320 Speaker 15: to the anti Semitic if we are the true Jews? 3093 02:56:11,360 --> 02:56:14,120 Speaker 6: Are we not? Or slain? 3094 02:56:14,640 --> 02:56:16,400 Speaker 15: And I take my commerce off the thank you so much, 3095 02:56:16,440 --> 02:56:17,120 Speaker 15: I have a good dess. 3096 02:56:17,959 --> 02:56:22,000 Speaker 4: Well sure sure, sure, well, as Hissband says, he who 3097 02:56:22,080 --> 02:56:26,680 Speaker 4: controls the definition controls the conversation. So you have to 3098 02:56:26,760 --> 02:56:33,280 Speaker 4: first identify what a Semite is. Semi means partial, so 3099 02:56:33,480 --> 02:56:36,879 Speaker 4: a semie to someone who is the way the term 3100 02:56:36,920 --> 02:56:41,560 Speaker 4: has been used, who is part part semi right? So 3101 02:56:41,840 --> 02:56:45,680 Speaker 4: who are the semis? Arabs? Are semis Jews of Semis? 3102 02:56:46,160 --> 02:56:51,160 Speaker 4: And before these people were classified racially classified since there 3103 02:56:51,240 --> 02:56:54,160 Speaker 4: is no such thing as race. Talking about definitions, Uh, 3104 02:56:54,480 --> 02:56:59,040 Speaker 4: they were Africans, So anyone who is anti Semitic is 3105 02:56:59,240 --> 02:57:02,879 Speaker 4: anti those those group of people. So these are terms 3106 02:57:02,920 --> 02:57:06,200 Speaker 4: that have been used and misused and the viused and 3107 02:57:06,280 --> 02:57:10,680 Speaker 4: misinterpreted in order to divide people. So let's let's just 3108 02:57:10,800 --> 02:57:13,360 Speaker 4: be clear about a couple of things. There is this 3109 02:57:13,560 --> 02:57:20,160 Speaker 4: thing that has always been in existence called afrophobia, which 3110 02:57:20,240 --> 02:57:23,760 Speaker 4: is the fear of African people, a fear of black people, 3111 02:57:24,360 --> 02:57:29,520 Speaker 4: and that's that preceded anti Semitism. That has always been 3112 02:57:29,560 --> 02:57:33,160 Speaker 4: an issue, but it hasn't gotten the promotion as these 3113 02:57:33,200 --> 02:57:36,880 Speaker 4: other terms have gotten. We're not clear about who we 3114 02:57:36,959 --> 02:57:39,600 Speaker 4: are as African people. We got black folk now debating 3115 02:57:39,680 --> 02:57:43,120 Speaker 4: whether or not you know we're African or or or 3116 02:57:43,240 --> 02:57:45,960 Speaker 4: you know. This all has a confusion out here, and 3117 02:57:46,080 --> 02:57:48,560 Speaker 4: so the best way you can control the people is 3118 02:57:48,680 --> 02:57:51,440 Speaker 4: by divide and rule. So we have to be clear 3119 02:57:51,520 --> 02:57:55,520 Speaker 4: about definitions and the concepts associated with definitions. Which is 3120 02:57:55,560 --> 02:57:59,480 Speaker 4: why when Malcolm in his autobiography UH talked about when 3121 02:57:59,520 --> 02:58:02,480 Speaker 4: he was in print that he read the Dictionary from 3122 02:58:02,760 --> 02:58:06,519 Speaker 4: A to zre to be clear of our definitions and terminologies. 3123 02:58:06,760 --> 02:58:11,400 Speaker 4: So whoever determines definition controls the conversation, So make sure 3124 02:58:11,440 --> 02:58:15,119 Speaker 4: you know what you're talking about right, and then articulate 3125 02:58:15,240 --> 02:58:18,080 Speaker 4: your points of view to those people who you want 3126 02:58:18,160 --> 02:58:22,400 Speaker 4: to lift up. It's a waste of time to argue 3127 02:58:22,440 --> 02:58:25,160 Speaker 4: with your enemy. It's a waste of time to argue 3128 02:58:25,200 --> 02:58:29,400 Speaker 4: with the full has construction discussions with people who you 3129 02:58:29,440 --> 02:58:32,680 Speaker 4: can deal with. We don't have time to engage in arguments. 3130 02:58:33,040 --> 02:58:36,640 Speaker 4: We should be spending all of our time from this 3131 02:58:37,040 --> 02:58:42,800 Speaker 4: breath forward building with like minded people who understand what's 3132 02:58:42,840 --> 02:58:45,640 Speaker 4: at stake and are willing to commit themselves to something 3133 02:58:45,720 --> 02:58:49,320 Speaker 4: bigger than themselves. That's my response, brother, all. 3134 02:58:49,240 --> 02:58:51,680 Speaker 1: Right, fourteen away from the top of the elle, let's 3135 02:58:51,680 --> 02:58:55,279 Speaker 1: go to line five, average color from Prince George's County, 3136 02:58:55,640 --> 02:58:58,039 Speaker 1: Everett Grand Rising.

I had no idea in nineteen eighty 3157 03:00:09,520 --> 03:00:12,040 Speaker 4: six when I started this thing that it would have 3158 03:00:12,760 --> 03:00:17,400 Speaker 4: this type of longevity, and so I'm always revisiting information. 3159 03:00:17,879 --> 03:00:20,760 Speaker 4: So our Egypt on the Potomac Field Trip for twenty 3160 03:00:20,800 --> 03:00:23,320 Speaker 4: twenty six is going to be profoundly different. I got 3161 03:00:23,440 --> 03:00:27,640 Speaker 4: new information as I've been sharing with folk. I'm now 3162 03:00:27,959 --> 03:00:31,720 Speaker 4: old enough to have a greater understanding of what I 3163 03:00:31,920 --> 03:00:35,680 Speaker 4: thought I knew. Right, I know a lot, but now 3164 03:00:35,720 --> 03:00:38,480 Speaker 4: I have a better understanding of what I thought I knew. 3165 03:00:38,760 --> 03:00:40,880 Speaker 4: I know how to connect the dots. I see how 3166 03:00:40,959 --> 03:00:43,720 Speaker 4: things are related in the manner of which I couldn't 3167 03:00:43,720 --> 03:00:47,600 Speaker 4: see before. So moving forward, my work is going to 3168 03:00:47,600 --> 03:00:50,560 Speaker 4: be upgraded. It's going to be a serious upgrade. It's 3169 03:00:50,600 --> 03:00:52,720 Speaker 4: going to be tighter than it was before. So Egypt 3170 03:00:52,760 --> 03:00:57,200 Speaker 4: on the Potomac is going to be a new experience. 3171 03:00:57,600 --> 03:01:00,600 Speaker 4: So you can go to our website get details or 3172 03:01:00,720 --> 03:01:03,960 Speaker 4: our schedule.

I'm encouraging you. 3206 03:03:04,240 --> 03:03:08,480 Speaker 4: I'm begging you all to support black bookstores. Support Senko 3207 03:03:08,560 --> 03:03:12,840 Speaker 4: for video and books, support hogy Les, support Everyone's Place 3208 03:03:13,000 --> 03:03:17,280 Speaker 4: in Baltimore, support IKG, support black businesses. That's how you 3209 03:03:17,480 --> 03:03:21,480 Speaker 4: invest right, That's how you avoid calamities. Because all of 3210 03:03:21,600 --> 03:03:26,200 Speaker 4: these black bookstores are threatened by Amazon. Jeff Bezos has 3211 03:03:26,200 --> 03:03:29,360 Speaker 4: got a gazillion dollars. Jeff Bezos doesn't give a damn 3212 03:03:29,400 --> 03:03:32,640 Speaker 4: about black folk. Only one is your money. So yeah, 3213 03:03:32,800 --> 03:03:35,480 Speaker 4: you can get my book on Amazon, but get it 3214 03:03:35,560 --> 03:03:38,360 Speaker 4: from a black bookstore first. And yeah you might pay 3215 03:03:38,760 --> 03:03:41,760 Speaker 4: a few pennies more, but give those few pennies to 3216 03:03:41,879 --> 03:03:45,640 Speaker 4: a black person who's gonna invest in you. This is 3217 03:03:45,680 --> 03:03:48,879 Speaker 4: our plaring car fo. Either we're gonna support each other 3218 03:03:49,440 --> 03:03:52,160 Speaker 4: and get each other's back, or we're gonna allow our 3219 03:03:52,320 --> 03:03:54,400 Speaker 4: persons to run us in the ground. And if they 3220 03:03:54,480 --> 03:03:57,520 Speaker 4: run us in the ground, it's our fault because we 3221 03:03:57,720 --> 03:04:00,640 Speaker 4: did not do well. We've always said the compare to do. 3222 03:04:00,959 --> 03:04:04,000 Speaker 4: It's a shame. It is the same at this point 3223 03:04:04,000 --> 03:04:06,040 Speaker 4: in time and history that we got to beg and 3224 03:04:06,120 --> 03:04:08,800 Speaker 4: plead with black folks to spend their money with black businesses. 3225 03:04:09,080 --> 03:04:13,400 Speaker 4: That's commonplace. Everybody else does it. So let's be serious. 3226 03:04:13,800 --> 03:04:17,959 Speaker 4: Let's start blaming other people. Let's start lifting ourselves up 3227 03:04:18,240 --> 03:04:22,760 Speaker 4: by beginning with our individual selves first. Don't point the 3228 03:04:22,840 --> 03:04:25,560 Speaker 4: finger at somebody else. Look at what you're doing, and 3229 03:04:25,760 --> 03:04:28,720 Speaker 4: do you better in twenty twenty six. Be a better father, 3230 03:04:29,000 --> 03:04:32,040 Speaker 4: be a better husband, be a better wife, be a 3231 03:04:32,120 --> 03:04:34,840 Speaker 4: better son, be a better daughter. Right, be a better 3232 03:04:34,959 --> 03:04:39,280 Speaker 4: community person. That's our saving grace. That's how we have 3233 03:04:39,680 --> 03:04:44,440 Speaker 4: always been able to succeed as the people, because we 3234 03:04:44,720 --> 03:04:50,000 Speaker 4: have always been able to come together like nobody else 3235 03:04:50,400 --> 03:04:54,280 Speaker 4: and do the impossible with nothing. That's our forte folk. 3236 03:04:54,520 --> 03:04:57,360 Speaker 4: And so whatever concept of God you may pray to, 3237 03:04:57,879 --> 03:05:00,800 Speaker 4: all right, can you stick to that? And you ask 3238 03:05:00,879 --> 03:05:03,560 Speaker 4: your concept of God to make you the best person, 3239 03:05:03,800 --> 03:05:06,720 Speaker 4: to make you a smarter person, a more intelligent person, 3240 03:05:07,080 --> 03:05:11,480 Speaker 4: a healthier person, a more financially stable person, so that 3241 03:05:11,640 --> 03:05:15,680 Speaker 4: you can give back to your community and build strong households. 3242 03:05:15,840 --> 03:05:18,440 Speaker 4: That's what all of this is for, right, And if 3243 03:05:18,480 --> 03:05:23,280 Speaker 4: you can't do that, then shame on you. There's no 3244 03:05:23,440 --> 03:05:28,160 Speaker 4: reason why we cannot do better. And as our opponents 3245 03:05:28,520 --> 03:05:32,840 Speaker 4: are rallying up to bury us, they can only bury us. 3246 03:05:33,120 --> 03:05:36,640 Speaker 4: If we roll over and play dead, now's the time 3247 03:05:36,720 --> 03:05:39,360 Speaker 4: to bring the best you possible. Thank you, man, I 3248 03:05:39,360 --> 03:05:41,320 Speaker 4: don't know where we are retired. Thank you. 3249 03:05:43,040 --> 03:05:44,800 Speaker 1: Yeah.

Atlantis has been an 3255 03:05:56,879 --> 03:06:02,000 Speaker 4: egypt some twenty times, so she position to continue her 3256 03:06:02,120 --> 03:06:05,680 Speaker 4: father's legacy. So I'm not putting pressure on her. If 3257 03:06:05,720 --> 03:06:08,640 Speaker 4: she wants to continue to do the study tours, she 3258 03:06:08,800 --> 03:06:11,960 Speaker 4: will now granted she has all the knowledge. She's a 3259 03:06:12,000 --> 03:06:14,160 Speaker 4: little intimidated, you know, she's got to walk in the 3260 03:06:14,200 --> 03:06:17,120 Speaker 4: footsteps of Tony Browner. But as I told her, she's prepared. 3261 03:06:17,280 --> 03:06:19,920 Speaker 4: She's got this. She knows more about history than the 3262 03:06:20,240 --> 03:06:23,400 Speaker 4: our Egypian history than the average Egyptian. So if she 3263 03:06:23,600 --> 03:06:26,800 Speaker 4: wants to do it, there's a place for her to 3264 03:06:26,920 --> 03:06:28,760 Speaker 4: do this.
